Preservation Hall — Now that’s where you’ll find all of the greats.” So declared the mighty Louis Armstrong, praising the hallowed performance center opened in New Orleans in 1961. As its house band, Preservation Hall is dedicated to both the preservation and extension of the traditional New Orleans sound — a mission carried out not only at the historic venue in the French Quarter, but around the world. Featuring a revolving, generation-spanning line-up of talented players, Preservation Hall has been touring since 1963, performing everywhere from Carnegie Hall to in front of British royalty and even the king of Thailand. In 2003, the ensemble was honored with a National Medal of Arts Award.
