Even in these times of restrictions, Italian Culture  in New York does not stop. Stemming from a collaboration with Italian drummer, composer and bandleader Luca Santaniello, the Italian Cultural Institute presents WITH JAZZ WE INSIST: AN ITALIAN MATINEE IN NEW YORK, a series of Jazz concerts streamed live from the Institute hall.

The series wishes to support the many Italian musicians living and working in New York in this moment of difficulty, providing a venue to perform and, although no audience could be allowed, we hope to reach as many of you as possible, through live streaming, lifting your mood and your spirit through the universal language of music.
