For thirty-two years, the traditional free jazz concert in the park has brought thousands from all over the region without fail. Now going into round thirty-three with new leadership, the festival is placing two milestones on the path of progress: international talent and educational engagements. The festival is growing in to three elements: CONCERT, ENGAGEMENT, LATE SHOW.
CONCERT is composed of the Main Stage program featuring the bulk of the music. But now, there is also a Finale Concert, featuring Reed Wallsmith (Blue Cranes) as the leader of a first time improvisation between Battle Hymns and Garden, Eri Yamamoto, and Ventura Trio, at The Colony, Sunday, July 21st, 9pm.
LATE SHOWS are featured acts offering long sets that end around midnight, Thursday through Saturday, at Central Hotel, and it provides a final place for festival goers, press, staff, and artists to congregate.
ENGAGEMENT is the educational focus: workshop, panel, and video screening. That entire program is free to students; any student over 13 with any valid ID.
Engage WORKSHOP includes four unique lessons instructed by leading jazz educators, Dan Balmer, The Quadraphonnes, Thollem McDonas, and Ezra Weiss. Each providing insight into their field where students are free to join with their instruments and engage with these great musicians.
Engage FILM is a themed program entitled Mad Men: 3 Portraits of Sixties Jazz Lunatics. It features film and video derived from important civil rights era artists: Thelonius Monk, Charlie Mingus, and Lenny Bruce.
Engage PANEL is free to all and kicks off the festival with "The Rise and Fall of Portland Jazz Festivals", a discussion between PDX Jazz, Mt. Hood Jazz, CPJazz, and KMHD.
