SFJAZZ COLLECTIVE plays the music of Antônio Carlos Jobim
and original compositions
Dear DAZZLE Guests,
It has come to our attention that a very unfortunate glitch occurred in our ticketing system for TONIGHT'S 9PM performance of SFJAZZ Collective.
Due to this glitch, we have only had Student and Teacher tickets available to the general public until TODAY! We encourage those of you who missed yesterday's show, or would like to see the band again, to take the opportunity to see this excellent ensemble tonight.
Our sincerest apologies for the inconvenience! Please click here or the button below to purchase tickets!
An all-star ensemble comprising eight of the finest performers/composers at work in jazz today, the SFJAZZ Collective premieres innovative new arrangements of the work of iconic Brazilian composer Antônio Carlos Jobim, along with newly minted compositions by the band. A primary creator of the bossa nova style, Jobim merged Brazilian popular song with jazz to form a new and wildly popular hybrid that has captivated listeners since its inception in the 1960s. The Collective highlights the pianist and composer’s immense diversity of expression, re-interpreting timeless classics including “Waters of March,” “Corcovado,” and “The Girl From Ipanema.”
An all-star ensemble comprising eight of the finest performer/composers at work in jazz today, the SFJAZZ Collective’s mission each year is to perform fresh arrangements of works by a modern master and newly commissioned pieces by each Collective member. Through this pioneering approach, simultaneously honoring music’s greatest figures while championing jazz’s up-to-the-minute directions, the Collective embodies SFJAZZ’s commitment to jazz as a living, ever-relevant art form.
