New Orleans Musicians on Studio 60 (have a tissue handy)

Posted on December 8, 2006 by

The new Aaron Sorkin drama "Studio 60: Live on the Sunset Strip" is still, in my view, trying to get its legs.  I found this last episode more hit than miss.  But all is forgiven with the literally show-stopping performance of "O Holy Night" by five New Orleans musicians.  (YouTube link.)  The performers were there on behalf of the Tipitina Foundation, which supports the rebuilding of musical culture in New Orleans.

This performance makes me tear up every time I watch it.

    Trombone Shorty is an amazing talent. I cried too. Here is a link that fits with this video. It is from a man living in post Katrina New Orleans.
