Jazz Inside out with Jim Nadel & Friends at Stanford Jazz Festival at Campbell Recital Hall

About

What makes jazz so special? What do jazz musicians think about when they play? Are you confused by jazz jargon? Perhaps you’re new to jazz and wonder how the musicians all play together without any sheet music. Or, why people applaud after some solos and not others. Maybe you’re a longtime jazz fan but still aren’t clear on what differentiates improvisation from the rest of the music. SJW Artistic & Executive Director Jim Nadel brings his horn and leads a band of top-notch players to illustrate enlightening explanations. For adults (and mature kids) who want to become a little wiser — and quite a bit hipper!
