Jazz 101 | All Ages

Ever wonder, wait... are they still playing the same song?

Curious why the crowd erupts in applause after a solo?

IJF Artistic Director Rob Dixon explains how jazz works and how and why we chose this year's IJF26 lineup.

Discussion led by saxophonist Rob Dixon, with Steven Jones (piano), Jesse Wittman (bass), and Kenny Phelps (drums) — plus a look at why this year's Indy Jazz Fest artists made the lineup.

No musical experience necessary ... Just bring your ears and your curiosity.
