JOYFUL NOISE

Singing in Jackson Square by candlelight can make everyone feel merry and bright! Every year on the Sunday before Christmas, Jackson Square lights up with candles and song. Since 1946 this Vieux Carre tradition has been a number one favorite of locals. With candles and sheet music provided, all one has to do is make a joyful noise!

"Sing, Sing a song, Sing out loud, Sing out strong, Sing of good things, not bad, Sing of happy, not of sad, Sing, Sing a song, make it simple, to last your whole life long, don't worry that it's not good enough, for anyone else to hear, Sing, Sing a song." Joe Raposo...composer and songwriter (1937-1989)
