Our friendly ushers will greet you and assist you in finding your way to your seats – there’s not a bad seat in the house! \nOur audience is diverse and you will see patrons of all ages and walks of life\, including couples\, singles\, students\, families\, and groups of friends – jazz has never met a stranger and all are welcome.  Many of our guests are tourists visiting Charleston\, and some of our regular attendees have been coming to concerts since the beginning of the organization.  We hope that you will become one of our “regulars” as well by joining the Charleston Jazz family by becoming a Season Subscriber\, Member\, Sponsor\, Donor\, Student or Advertiser.  There is a place for YOU at Charleston Jazz. \n  \n\nI have been a season ticket holder since the inception of Charleston Jazz Orchestra for many wonderful reasons. The caliber of performances are spectacular. Their musical selections appeal to all musical tastes regardless of age. The Music Hall is the perfect venue for such a group of phenomenal artists. \n★ ★ ★ ★ ★ \nLil H.\, Google Review \n\n  \n\nWe love the Charleston Jazz Orchestra!

SUMMARY:Listening Shed
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1728571240470{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\nHost: Robert Lewis \nCharleston Jazz Academy \nFREE – Open To All \n  \n\nThe Listening Shed is an opportunity to shine a light on the most important aspect of understanding jazz: listening! It will be a chance for students and jazz lovers alike to experience how jazz professionals listen to and gain insights from music. Every Thursday in November (aside from Thanksgiving)\, we will have a professional from the community present records that have been impactful in their learning of this music. The musicians will highlight subtleties that may be easily missed\, foundational elements of jazz\, and specific aspects that each particular musician appreciates in this informal\, fun gathering of musicians and enthusiasts. The “shed” is important for musicians—it’s where we work out our ideas and find our voice in this continuum. With the Listening Shed\, we hope to bring that same significance to everyone’s first experience with this music! \n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

It will be a chance for students and jazz lovers alike to experience how jazz professionals listen to and gain insights from music. Every Thursday in November (aside from Thanksgiving)\, we will have a professional from the community present records that have been impactful in their learning of this music. The musicians will highlight subtleties that may be easily missed\, foundational elements of jazz\, and specific aspects that each particular musician appreciates in this informal\, fun gathering of musicians and enthusiasts.

Our friendly ushers will greet you and assist you in finding your way to your seats – there’s not a bad seat in the house! \nOur audience is diverse and you will see patrons of all ages and walks of life\, including couples\, singles\, students\, families\, and groups of friends – jazz has never met a stranger and all are welcome.  Many of our guests are tourists visiting Charleston\, and some of our regular attendees have been coming to concerts since the beginning of the organization.  We hope that you will become one of our “regulars” as well by joining the Charleston Jazz family by becoming a Season Subscriber\, Member\, Sponsor\, Donor\, Student or Advertiser.  There is a place for YOU at Charleston Jazz. \n  \nI have been a season ticket holder since the inception of Charleston Jazz Orchestra for many wonderful reasons. The caliber of performances are spectacular. Their musical selections appeal to all musical tastes regardless of age. The Music Hall is the perfect venue for such a group of phenomenal artists. \n★ ★ ★ ★ ★ \nLil H.\, Google Review \n  \nWe love the Charleston Jazz Orchestra!

Our friendly ushers will greet you and assist you in finding your way to your seats – there’s not a bad seat in the house! \nOur audience is diverse and you will see patrons of all ages and walks of life\, including couples\, singles\, students\, families\, and groups of friends – jazz has never met a stranger and all are welcome.  Many of our guests are tourists visiting Charleston\, and some of our regular attendees have been coming to concerts since the beginning of the organization.  We hope that you will become one of our “regulars” as well by joining the Charleston Jazz family by becoming a Season Subscriber\, Member\, Sponsor\, Donor\, Student or Advertiser.  There is a place for YOU at Charleston Jazz. \n  \nI have been a season ticket holder since the inception of Charleston Jazz Orchestra for many wonderful reasons. The caliber of performances are spectacular. Their musical selections appeal to all musical tastes regardless of age.

Bring your burning questions and your autograph pens! \n  \n“I try not to allow myself any preconceived ideas of what I should sound like\, what kind of music I ought to be writing\, or what I ought to be listening to. In this way\, I hope to discover what I actually do sound like\, and what I enjoy in music. The moments of greatest beauty and originality always seem to happen when there’s no agenda.”\n–Chris Potter \n  \nA world-class soloist\, accomplished composer\, and formidable bandleader\, saxophonist Chris Potter has emerged as a leading light of his generation. DownBeat called him “One of the most studied (and copied) saxophonists on the planet” while Jazz Times identified him as “a figure of international renown.” Jazz sax elder statesman Dave Liebman called him simply\, “one of the best musicians around\,” a sentiment shared by the readers of DownBeat in voting him second only to tenor sax great Sonny Rollins in the magazine’s 2008 Readers Poll. \n  \nThis event is presented in partnership with Spoleto Festival USA[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1717012602064{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]\n\nWatch this clip from a Chris Potter Masterclass!\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_video link=”https://youtu.be/AbpSOly9PwQ?si=lpNXB0JfC2oE2utQ”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Many of the materials used to build the elegant\, barn-inspired space were taken from our roots on Wadmalaw Island\, with elements purchased from local craftsmen or refurbished from a rustic barn. \nHome of the world’s first Sweet Tea Vodka\, Firefly continues to make great spirits. From our popular original vodkas to our maritime influenced bourbon\, and lineup of 11 moonshine flavors\, Firefly has grown to include more than 30 innovative spirits. \nThe Charleston Jazz Festival audience is diverse and you will see patrons of all ages and walks of life\, including couples\, singles\, students\, families\, and groups of friends – jazz has never met a stranger and all are welcome.  Many of our guests are tourists visiting Charleston\, and some of our regular attendees have been coming to concerts since the beginning of the organization.  We hope that you will become one of our “regulars” as well by joining the Charleston Jazz family by becoming a Season Subscriber\, Member\, Sponsor\, Donor\, Student or Advertiser.  There is a place for YOU at Charleston Jazz. \n  \nThe caliber of performances are spectacular. Their musical selections appeal to all musical tastes regardless of age.  \n★ ★ ★ ★ ★ \nLil H.\, Google Review \n  \n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1710858257501{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]Watch these videos of past performances by The Abdiel Iriarte Experiment and Charlton Singleton and Contemporary Flow! \nThe video of Charlton Singleton was recorded and produced by the Charleston Gaillard Center.[/vc_column_text][vc_video max_width=”600″ link=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VoqftuydDuU”][vc_video max_width=”600″ link=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FajcvCnZHvM”][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Venue + Parking” tab_id=”1687723528215-f19b02d2-f471″][vc_gmaps link=”#E-8_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”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1707146682430{margin-bottom: 0px !important;}”]Venue: \nFirefly Distillery \n4201 Spruill Ave\, North Charleston\, SC 29405 \n  \nParking: \nThe Distillery has a fairly large parking lot.
