Preservation Hall Jazz Band: NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert
Музыка
Our goal for this special holiday Tiny Desk Concert is simple: to bring you joy. Preservation Hall Jazz Band is a hot and historic outfit from New Orleans, and its members brought us a tuba-wielding Santa and some original holiday cheer and praise - what they call a Cajun Christmas from the French Quarter.
We lit some lights and decorated my desk and shelves as best we could, but it's this amazing band - complete with saxophone, trombone, trumpet, drums and a couple of tubas - that lit this place up. We've never had so much dancing from the NPR crew at a Tiny Desk Concert. So enjoy the show, and happy holidays to all from NPR Music. --BOB BOILEN

Imagine playing the tuba and having enough brain cells left over to manage the tambourine too? Love this talented group!
Love, love, love. For those who might visit New Orleans, a wholehearted recommendation to go to the Preservation Hall and experience not just the music, but the music and the place, together. One of my favorite nights in New Orleans.

LOVE that older tenor sax’s voice! Has a hint of Louis Armstrong to it. Perfect for this music.

That older tenor sax is Charlie Gabriel, who is very very impressive. He released his first solo album at 89 years old last year. Look him up÷
Always come back to this video... these guys are amazing! PHJB is too much fun and represent what music is all about!
I was fortunate to see them live during Mardi Gras years ago and it was glorious! 😊 Can only imagine how spectacular they would be in New Orleans at the Preservation Hall. Another thing to add to the list of things to do. 😊💙🖤✨
I was just at preservation hall tonight and to say I fell in love there is an understatement! Fantastic, awe striking, phenomenal music with passion!
There is one word for this and that word is FANTASTIC.
These guys are awesome!
Awesome set. First heard of these guys on a track they did with Tom Waits. Can't help but smile when listening! :]
Absolutely sublime. Love it.
Wonderful MUSIC Y'all and Charlie Gabe. New Orleans MUSIC 🎶 IS THE BEST MUSIC 🎶 . One can't sit still, and the Feet Keep MOVING TOO. ❤😂❤
I think I love you; I really do. This video features the best Santa after the real one.
I love this band
Thank you for your awesome music. This is pure joy and heavenly to listen to.

I saw these guys perform on KERA back in October and I was just waiting for them to show up on a tiny desk concert. It's a pain not being able to travel or buy music, so this was just really great!

No it's just a sousaphone made out of fiberglass or something. Very common in marching bands.

It's most likely fiberglass. It's a common material for sousaphones(which is what that instrument is, though the two instrument produced basically the same sound which is why they can be interchangeable) which generally is a little cheaper than using brass.

A bit, but I kept thinking, What is Captain Holt from Brooklyn 99 doing playing drums here?
Percy and Willie would be turning in their graves to hear this crap noise coming from a fake preservation jazz band.... I remember the last time I was in Preservation Hall and they were playing mainstream [i refuse to call it 'jazz'.].As I left I said to the woman selling tapes 'Percy would never have allowed this noise'..Her response left me cold..'Percy is dead now'...
