(Eleuthera, Bahamas) – Eleuthera residents over the course of the weekend were once again treated to the beautiful sounds of Jazz in several locations from musicians who thrilled the ears with the sounds of the drums, piano, bass violin, trumpet, saxaphone, guitar, vocal chords and more. Tropical settings for the soothing, yet uplifting music seldom get any more fitting than those provided by Eleuthera, on locations positioned on either coast, under the Pavillion of the Leon Levy Native Plant Preserve, or the street at Governor’s Harbour Fish Fry.
It was also fanstastic to see the multi-talented musical artists spend time with young children at Haynes Library on Saturday, April 2nd, 2016, as part of an educational portion of the event. More about The Eleutheran @ Eleuthera All That Jazz 2016 will be published in an up coming issue of one of our Publications.
