Great jazz
Since 1949, I have enjoyed jazz. It started before 1949 but got me rolling with first the music of Charlie Parker n Dizzy Gillespie n delivered Miles in a cool format which I enjoyed because at my age, around 17 ot 28, I thought I was cool.
At first I got thrown out of jazz clubs in Brooklyn where I lived because I ordered scotch n bourbon st the same time as something to drink. Kenny Durham was embarrassed one night when s customer broke a glass loudly by mistake during Durban’s solo. LTer hr complained about the lack of venues for jazz. I did got to Birdland n listened to Bud Powell, MJQ, Cannonball…and others before I joined the US Army n got stationed in France…
In Paris, I saw everybody who came to Paris from 1955 thru 1957… at Camelion, St Germain des Pres, Club Tabou, Mars Bar…and had to leave Paris to go to college which was why I joined the army.
College, grad school, wife, kids, overseas assignments, but still jazz at Bradley’s or other clubs in the Village…and then when I came back from Hong Kong, Gordon David n Diane Coffee had s breakfast n I met this young musician. Wynton Marsalis. He stuck his hand out at the buffer table n introduced himself to an old banker at that time.
I love jazz n the elegance of the notes, the history of its musicians n the impact on American culture.

Jazz live is part library part live show
What a wonderful app that livestreams performances from Dizzy’s & Jazz at Lincoln Center’s main stages. The archive videos are fantastic addition to the library of the app.
Love the content; still needs improved functionality
Love the content. If there is a way to stop stream and hold place, I can’t find it. Sometimes life happens and I really want to restart where I stopped. I may be missing something, but it shouldn’t take a lot of exploration to stop and start!

Freeze Up
Picture keeps freezing up when I play from my Ipad to an LG tv. Hopefully you will provide the app on the LG menu.
Missing some functionality
Recently changed from Android to iPhone. The Android version of this app worked beautifully. All titles were visible and it was easy to move back to the menu at any point.
With the Apple version, only half of the titles show up on the menu, and the only way to go back to the menu is to close the app and restart it. Some kind of “back” button/feature would be a great addition!

What a wealth of great music for jazz fans!
Imagine being able to see everything at the Rose and Dizzy’s without having to travel to NYC! This is Lincoln Center’s crazy good gift to you.
Knocking down this gift horse by a star, though, because of serious navigation issues. If there is a way to back out of the selected video to the main menu, I haven’t figured it out yet. Thus, if I want to get back to the main menu, I have to close the app entirely and start over. Also, the app opens only in portrait and it’s not clear that the video plays in the more appropriate landscape mode - it does - so, like so many others, the app clearly needs to be optimized for iPad.

Not sure about this app. Don’t understand the chat feature.
What is the chat feature about. Why would Ella Fitzgerald chat with Coleman Ornette?
Nice start, but.
The application is difficult to navigate.
