Join us for casual daytime talks and listening sessions with leading lights of the Bay Area jazz community. Bring your own lunch or order ahead from the JazzCaffè. Wednesdays at lunchtime! Free, drop-ins welcome.Our summer series is presented in collaboration with The Freight.
This summer, recent graduates of UC Berkeley’s Music Department share their research about jazz, improvisation, and global music as part of our lunchtime series. Grace Basom (BA Music ’26) discusses moments of unity and cooperative creation in her study of free improvisation, and shares recordings from her senior capstone performance, which consisted of free and conducted improvisations performed by a 14-piece chamber orchestra.
To order lunch from the JazzCaffè, call 510-654-0148 to place your order before 10:30 am the day of the program.
