Blue Note New York is the Greenwich Village jazz club that spawned a global jazz empire.

Both jazz legends and up-and-comers play. You never know who might be sitting in, or sitting next to you. It’s that kind of place.

The Blue Note Jazz Festival is a New York June tradition.

Chris Botti’s Holiday Residency is pushing 20 years.

Thank you Blue Note Entertainment for sponsoring Latin jazz!
