Live Music with dancer Jacquie “Tajah” Murdock

Jacquie “Tajah” Murdock has been a member of the National Jazz Museum in Harlem family ever since her appearance for the Harlem Speaks series in 2004. Since then, the elegant elder dancer, educator and dance historian has participated in several of the museum’s other programs, including the Harlem Speaks Education Initiative. So it’s only appropriate that we bring her to center stage yet again, this time for a discussion of the Apollo Theater and the Savoy Ballroom, and a live dance demonstration as well!

This press release was composed and edited by Greg Thomas.
The National Jazz Museum in Harlem has been ensconced in its Harlem offices for over five years now; its public programs now attract several thousand people a year. Good news: The Victoria Theater on 125th Street will be redeveloped and includes space (10,150 sq. feet) for the museum!
