About

Jazz as an art form is based on being completely focused in the present moment. Jazz musicians do this by being aware of their surroundings and harmonizing with the other musicians as well as the mood of the audience.

The Shinnyo Center's Jazz Meditation explores this concept as musicians play off the words of the guide who in-turn will reflect the musical accompaniment in the leading of his practice to audience members.

The sessions are led by a Shinnyo meditation guide, with accompaniment by Nick Gianni on saxophone, Arlen Hart on piano and Kenji Tajima on percussion. Join us for this unique live jazz performance and meditation experience!
