We are SO glad we found JazzED! I cannot say enough about this amazing organization and what it has done for our children. The staff and teachers are absolutely committed to their mission. Everyone who works there seems to be doing this for the best of motives -- to spread music and joy, and to preserve jazz for the future. They are also committed to equity -- to making jazz education accessible for anyone regardless of income, gender, race, social class, musical ability, etc.
And these teachers make magic happen! Their concerts are phenomenal! It is a true joy to hear these kids play. As an added bonus, the JazzED folks really seem to understand the importance of being positive role models for children, and of guiding them as they grow into mature, responsible members of the community. Jazz + healthy kids -- what could be better?
