It’s a special day in 1950s Harlem, and C. J., an aspiring young jazz musician, is excited. His trumpet-playing Uncle Click is getting ready to be photographed by Highnote magazine.

As C. J. races to Uncle Click’s favorite hangouts—from Garlic’s Barbershop to the Midnight Melody Club—a buzz about the photo shoot begins to stir in the Harlem air. C. J. returns home without the hat, but news of the photo has spread like wildfire. Soon all the best jazz musicians in the neighborhood have shown up at Uncle Click’s front door for a photo shoot of historic proportions.
Sweet Music in Harlem captures the energy and excitement of a magical time in Harlem’s jazz history, highlighting the dynamic friendship of a close-knit community.
