A special jazz-filled afternoon of film and live music
Sunday, May 31st at 3 PM

Join us for an afternoon screening of Woody Allen’s Midnight in Paris, a film that captures Paris of the 1920s and 30s, a world of writers, painters, musicians, cafés, and nightlife, where creativity thrived.
At the heart of this cultural moment is Gypsy jazz, the influential style pioneered by guitarist Django Reinhardt, who blended American swing with Romani traditions and French musette. This timeless style weaves throughout the film, evoking the charm and the magic of a bygone era.
After the screening, enjoy a live performance by chromatic harmonica virtuoso Yvonnick Prene, featuring selections from his latest album Un Harmonica pour Django, inspired by this rich musical tradition.
Midnight in Paris:
From acclaimed director Woody Allen comes a romantic comedy about the magic that can take place in the City of Light. When a small group of Americans visit the French capital for business and pleasure, their lives are soon transformed, and a young couple is forced to confront the shortcomings of their relationship. Their different goals are brought to light after each night at midnight brings with it something unexpected yet magical. Featuring a star-studded cast that includes Owen Wilson, Rachel McAdams, Marion Cotillard, Léa Seydoux, Tom Hiddleston, Adrien Brody, Carla Bruni, Michael Sheen, & Corey Stoll.
