Join us for a panel discussion on how jazz became so popular in Vermont. That Burlington is now celebrating its 38th year of a ten-day music festival devoted exclusively to jazz is truly amazing. In this hour-long panel, we will hear firsthand from some of Vermont’s longstanding contributors and stalwarts of the genre as to how this phenomenon came to be. Moderated by veteran broadcast journalist Fran Stoddard, panelists discuss how jazz was first introduced to the state and how generations of jazz musicians helped cultivate a resounding interest. Panelists will also discuss the venues and nightclubs where jazz was most supported, and how touring big bands and other jazz ensembles made their way to the Green Mountains. Panelists include guitarist and educator Paul Asbell, sax/woodwind player and educator Rich Davidian, bassist and mandolin player Will Patton, pianist and teacher Rob Guerrina, and jazz singer Jenni Johnson.
