From Broadway To Jazz:

With his passion for musical history, Olivier Hutman, pianist, composer, and artistic director of Jazz at ECUJE, invites you on a journey to the heart of 20th-century America.

From Broadway to Harlem, from musicals to jazz, he traces the decisive contribution of Jewish musicians and composers to the birth of a sound that has become universal.

From George Gershwin to Irving Berlin, Jerome Kern to Leonard Bernstein, these creators shaped American musical modernity, combining jazz rhythms with European tradition, the melodies of exile with the vitality of the New York scene.

Through sound clips and anecdotes, Olivier Hutman brings to life an era when music became a language of integration, freedom, and hope.

A luminous and rhythmic lecture, where memory, swing, and inspiration come together to celebrate the soul of a diverse America.
