Some of the community’s most active musicians participate in the monthly Jazz Jam series, under the direction of WAC’s artistic director for jazz Brian Torff. The sessions are intended to be a spontaneous exploration of jazz, blues and other music styles, on which musicians are encouraged to drop in and jam. Among the instruments showing up at the jams are saxophone, clarinet, trumpet, electric violin, electric guitar, keyboard, drums, voice and more. WAC’s Jazz Jam series began in January 2011.
Jazz Jam sponsor Dr. Arthur Ashman added, “It is our hope that this series has stimulated, and/or reawakened the love of jazz, our American music heritage.” Jazz Jams for the 2012-13 season are scheduled on Thursday evenings at 7 p.m. on September 20, October 18, December 13, January 10, February 21, March 14, April 18 and May 9.
