“Harlem is a dream-place where so much important cultural history has been enacted that as we explore the power of Harlem’s past we also feel its presence. Take the M60-bus along 125th, or emerge from the A-train at 125th or 145th or from the 2 or 3 train at 125th or 135th—you enter a city-within-a-city that is pulsing with vivid, lived experiences. Behind these Harlem doors, some of the best music on the planet is being played.” Robert G. O’Meally, Columbia University Zora Neale Hurston Professor and Founder of Columbia University Jazz Studies
