Bob Masteller, owner of the Jazz Corner, recalls his lifetime in jazz and history back to the Roaring Twenties when his father was leading a jazz band playing hot fiddle. He sat down with author Martin McFie, talked through his lecture notes and together they fashioned a living story of The Jazz Corner, the music and the national and international stars who have played the club which is now recognized as one of the top 100 jazz rooms in the entire world. The book features recipes, music, behind the scenes stories and is filled with photos from the earliest jazz days right up to recipes for the freshest food from the kitchen.
The book is sold to benefit the Junior Jazz Foundation, preserving the great American art form of jazz through education and performance.

Jazz Corner News


 Our guests at The Jazz Corner enjoy a fine dinner and good drinks. They are transported back in time to the jazz age by the atmosphere and great music played close to the melody, in the true style of the era. I learned that straight from my father, who led his own jazz band during the Roaring 1920's.

We also reach out to the community in performances and to the young musicians in schools and jazz camps through our Junior Jazz Foundation. If a promising young musician needs an instrument they get one, if they need music lessons, they get those too.
Around 1912, a poor skinny black kid was living in the Colored Waifs Home in New Orleans. Someone gave him a cornet and taught him how to play. The kid's name was Daniel Louis Armstrong and he became a giant in American jazz music. We want all young people to have an appreciation of their American jazz music birthright.

Whether you donate, buy a book or a memento of your visit, you are helping young people to gain an understanding and learn to play great live American jazz and you become a partner in our mission to preserve America's classic music.

Thank you for your continued support,
Bob Masteller
