Chocolate and Jazz

The dessert that Jazz evokes is a brownie, as both were created in United States at a close time.
Jazz originated in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century in New Orleans and the first brownie receipts are from the same time.

Following, an excerpt of why UNESCO created an international Jazz day:
·   Jazz breaks down barriers and creates opportunities for mutual understanding and tolerance;
·   Jazz is a vector of freedom of expression;
·   Jazz is a symbol of unity and peace;
·   Jazz reduces tensions between individuals, groups, and communities;
·   Jazz fosters gender equality;
·   Jazz reinforces the role youth play for social change;
·   Jazz encourages artistic innovation, improvisation, new forms of expression, and inclusion of traditional music forms into new ones;
·   Jazz stimulates intercultural dialogue and empowers young people from marginalized societies.
  

And of course, following some pictures of our brownie. Enjoy!
