Doors 2:30 PM, Music 3:00 PM
About
“Standards are engaging and accessible for musicians and listeners alike, but nearly all of jazz’s standard repertoire is from a 50 year period ca. 1920 – 1970.
Another half century has since passed, where new compositions have not been added to this shared language.
Join a collective of musicians who met through the Vortex jazz club in imagining future standards.
3 – 7.30pm: accessible open jam session open to all to join in from 3pm, for standards from the real book and “future standards”. House band will play a number of future standards throughout the afternoon.
For more details on the future standards project, including sheet music, workshops, and to suggest additions to the repertoire, contact vortex.jazz.collective at gmail dot com
