JODY ESPINA | The Music of My Heroes Concert Event

A 1983 Magne Cum Laude graduate of Berklee College of Music, Espina, performed and taught music in Barcelona, then toured the United States with the Tommy Dorsey Orchestra before settling in New York City in 1985. For the next 23 years, Espina pursued a successful career performing, recording and teaching music, including Broadway shows, recording movie soundtracks and as the head of the Jazz Department for the Hoff-Barthelson Music School.

In 2000, Espina founded JodyJazz Inc., which has become one of the premier saxophone and clarinet mouthpiece companies in the world. In 2008 Espina moved JodyJazz to Savannah GA where all production is done in their 25 employee factory. Since 2018 JodyJazz has acquired the brands, Chedeville® and E. Rousseau®, both well known mouthpiece companies with founding dates of 1923 and 1972 respectively.

Espina is a former Board Member of the Savannah Jazz Association, and was inducted into the Savannah Jazz Hall of Fame in 2023.
