Close your eyes and your there-this is sounds of Mardi Gras, start out getin off the Trolly, walk the quarter, parades brass bands and end it with a ferry ride across the river.

Open Sound New Orleans So sad to hear of the passing of one of New Orleans' great citizens, Pam Dashiell. We'll never forget your steady, soft, strong voice, Pam.

Juliana Wisher Thanks for helping me virtually visit New Orleans Heather & Jacob! As I listen my eyes can't help but close & I can almost smell the night blooming jasmine.

Some sounds you'll only hear in New Orleans. Independent producers Jacob Brancasi and Heather Booth are charting the city by sound for Open Sound New Orleans, an interactive audio project.

Trish Short Lewis Heard about this on NPR this morning...since I have never been to New Orleans and quite likely will never get there (I'd love to, but I just can't afford to...), this is the next best way to learn more about it...

I love hearing the sounds of the Steamboat Natchez pass by my house. It's enchanting.
