Admission to the concert also grants access to the exhibitions at the New Orleans Jazz Museum. About Frog and Henry: Formed in New Orleans as a collective of several street performing groups, Frog & Henry perform and record old dance and jazz music from the early 1900's on brass and string instruments, with several singers and vocal harmony. Most of our repertoire was obtained by digging up forgotten songs from the dawn of recorded music, in the form of early dance tunes, and from even earlier 19thc sheet music. They've borrowed the phrase 'string and brass band' from the descriptions of the earliest dance and jazz bands. And in that tradition they feature violin and mandolin-banjo as melody instruments along with clarinet and baritone saxophone.
