Meet award-winning author and independent scholar of Berklee College of Music- Carolyn Vezina as she takes us on a journey through the history of French Creole and its significant role incorporating African, European, Caribbean elements decades before early jazz appeared. As such, French Creole music belongs both to the Black American folk music that gave birth to jazz, and to Franco-American folk music, reflecting the rich heritage of present day Louisiana.
