This was a great event that combined two wonderful art forms - jazz music and visual arts - for a great evening of entertainment. The orchestra was amazing having only had a few days to learn such intricate pieces, and the guest musicans added a wonderful florish to some of the peices. The only thing that stopped this from being exceptional was the pacing on the art was a bit slow at some points.

A stunning, modern facility with great acoustics and sight lines. Excellent visuals from a quality rear projection screen system created a visual and sound tapestry.

Visually stimulating having the art imagery engage and illustrate the jazz. A really new way for me to make the connection with the emotion of the music.

My friends and I enjoyed this event very much. The combination of live jazz along with beautiful large paintings on the wall was very stimulating and a very beautiful experience.
