Jazz is America’s truly original art form. It developed from African and European influences and grew with our country, capturing the spirit of the nation through its melding of cultures, independence and improvisation, and energy; all of which are hallmarks of American ideals.
Jazz is one of our country’s most sought-after international exports, with its language being “spoken” by people around the world. Jazz, emanating from America, has become world music. It is America’s Classical Music. The Coastal Jazz Association is committed to perpetuating Jazz by:
- Offering performance opportunities for local, regional, national and international Jazz musicians. This includes the week-long FREE Savannah Jazz Festival every September.
- Providing a venue for big band concerts.
- Nurturing the next generation of Jazz musicians and enthusiasts by active educational and live performance programs.
- Publishing the monthly jazz newsletter ‘Noteworthy’ which includes local, regional and national jazz news.
- Broadcasting a weekly jazz radio program on WHCJ 90.3 FM to showcase the various jazz artists and styles of jazz.
- Networking with other cultural arts organizations to expose larger numbers of people to serious jazz music of various styles.
