Jazz is America's truly original art form. It developed from African and European influences and grew with our country, capturing the spirit of the nation through its melding of cultures, independence and improvisation, and energy; all of which are hallmarks of American ideals.
Today, Jazz is one of our country's most sought-after international exports, with its language being "spoken" by people around the world. Jazz, emanating from America, has become world music. It is the music of the twenty-first century. South Florida JAZZ is committed to perpetuating Jazz in these particular ways:
- Offering performance venues for musicians local, regional, national and international, whom we regard as treasured talents.
- Nurturing the next generation of Jazz musicians and enthusiasts by active educational and live performance programs.
- Networking with other cultural arts organizations to expose larger numbers of people to serious jazz music of various styles.
- Encouraging performance opportunities for non-professional musicians for pleasure and skill-enhancement.
