Promoting and nurturing jazz in Chicago since 1969.
The Jazz Institute of Chicago’s (JIC) mission is to promote and nurture jazz in all its forms. JIC helps jazz music thrive and expand by celebrating the work of past musicians, shining a light on present musicians, and making a brighter way for future musicians. This is realized through community and education programs, 90% of which are free.
Jazz Institute of Chicago’s pillars include • provide jazz education • preserve the legacy of jazz • develop and support Chicago musicians • build Chicago’s jazz community • foster a thriving Chicago jazz scene

Love this rendition of Summertime! Marquis Hill is such a talent. Saw him live at the Blue Whale (Little Tokyo) In Los Angeles back in 2015. Can’t wait for the world to safely open back up so we can experience more gems like this in the live arena!,
This was great! I miss attending Jazz Links, will look forward to attending "live" again. Thanks for doing this to keep your superb young musicians in touch, informed, motivated. Of course, I really miss hearing them too.
@@JazzInstituteChicago You guys are amazing. I've been following you for about 7 years now. I've since moved to Cali. I'll be attending a concert this Saturday and there's a good chance of me sharing this with the program director. :-)
