watch boring TV ... and by default miss the greatest monthly
Live Jazz Event of its kind anywhere!
We're not too modest about this as you may have gathered by now -
it is the perfect location and we bring you great musicians,
performing Contemporary Jazz music in superb surroundings - it's a pretty good deal
too! This
is your invitation to come and witness the Gig....the 'must be there' music event that is
Concert Jazz, right here in parochial
Oxfordshire - how much closer
can
you get! - You could always set the video and judge later
which was the most vibrant performance of the evening.

Very Social Jazz Events
Come and join us for exciting performances of Instrumental and Vocal(ese) Jazz as
rendered by the finest of young British Musicians.
These
talented Jazz Artists are having a major impact on
the established American Jazz Scene and often support their major Performers when they visit
our shores.
No mean feat for
these hard working, inventive and prolific young individuals. Come
along and give them your support - they desperately seek your audience.
CAN YOU HELP
CONCERT JAZZ?
Could you help to pass the word around and tell friends, family and work
colleagues about our Jazz Concerts. Do you have a staff notice board at work or do
you have a shop window. If you could oblige us by putting up posters or handing
out leaflets or leaving leaflets on your shop or reception counters, we would be
very grateful.
We welcome volunteers from any walk of
life and from every age group. We need them year-on-year to provide the
necessary backbone and support for our visiting Jazz Musicians. They bring
an impressive variety of skills and work for differing periods of time with
varying intensity.
The roles accorded to volunteers enable
them to develop and impart their skills and to enjoy actual working experience
in areas that include Artist Liaison, marketing, publicity, sound engineering,
distribution, press and PR, technical support, administration, communications,
event management, driving and IT.
Typically, a volunteer might work one or
two days a week for a month during the build-up, then everyday towards the event
date, plus another day to wind up. Others might work on the evenings of the
Concert and every effort is made to usefully occupy all volunteer time offered.
If this is something that you are
interested in participating in please contact jazz Eddie directly
Contact us and we will send
Posters and Leaflets to you.
Can you help with Promotions?

It would be nice
to have a Concert Jazz Art Foundation to advance music education for
the public of this Borough and surrounding areas. It could both administer and
co-ordinate the provision of music tuition and youth music activities for young
people and adults. In addition also support the development of music education
in schools and provides a wide range of music making opportunities, including
concert performances, workshops, projects and courses.
This webpage is here to encourage
all generations to become involved in listening to, playing, discussing Jazz,
and conveying its benefits for young people and schools. The website also
includes local Events and Venues where you can expand your knowledge of
Contemporary Jazz Music and its purveyors.

Corporate Sponsors Required
To improve the quality of Performances at our
monthly gigs, or to maintain ongoing International Jazz Performers
participation, we would welcome all degrees of Sponsorship from any Local or
National Company that feels that Contemporary Jazz of this quality would assist
in the promotion of their Corporate image in the Thame Area and beyond. In
return you invest in something pleasurable of your choice, support your local
Community and enjoy Corporate
