The trip to New York to watch a live jazz performance

The Gotham jazzmen were at the New York City public library and they played songs like, New Orleans jazz, traditional jazz, Dixieland jazz. They had instruments such as Contra Bass, clarinet, piano, trombone, cornet and a drum set that doesn't have a bass drum. 
They played the song at first as a group and then the clarinet, cornet and trombone soloed the song while the drummer soloed some of the songs. My favorite song was Rosetta and I enjoyed the show even if it didn't end well because a lady came in and told them to stop because the space was going to be used for something else that day. Majority of the people in attendance were also very old people and the pianist was imitating Louis Armstrong.
