Together their decades of experience combine to create exhilarating live performances.
Tickets for the live in-studio performance are limited and range in price from $35 (WDNA members) to $45 (non-members). Students are invited to reserve a free ticket, bring their instruments, and join a post-concert open jam session.
The Jazz Encounters series just celebrated its 15th anniversary and is curated by well-known musician and educator Nicole Yarling. In addition to great live music, each ticket includes appetizers served by The Fish House and a donation bar offering a variety of beverages.
This concert is sponsored by Miami-Dade County Division of Cultural Affairs and Musicians Discount Center.
