Jazz In The Park 2014
The Atlanta Jazz Festival, May 25, 2014, Piedmont Park, Atlanta, GA....The 2014 Atlanta Jazz Festival was nothing but glorious, pure, enjoyable jazz. Thousands gathered in the Park on this day.

They came from all over the United States just for 31 days of jazz--all shapes, sizes, colors, ethnicities, and walks of life, whom are seen in this 129-image gallery.

On this Sunday, the last sprint began at 7p with The Airmen Of Note, Freddie Cole, Bill Frisell's Guitar In The Space Age (featuring Fred Leisz, Tony Scherr, and Rudy Royston).
