If jazz seems confusing to you, let SJW Founder and Artistic Director Jim Nadel open the hood to show you how simple and fun it really is. In this show full of exciting music as well as enlightening commentary, Jim leads a band of top-notch players to help illustrate his good humored introduction into the elements of the art form. You’ll learn how jazz musicians silently communicate with each other to shape the sound of the music and to support the structure of improvised solos. How does the drummer know when to start and stop soloing? Why don’t the musicians need sheet music? Jim doesn’t just talk about jazz — he turns it inside-out, so you’ll have a deeper appreciation of the music you’ll hear all summer long at the Stanford Jazz Festival....
