Overview

Performance Santa Fe is proud to present the 12-part jazz education series Get Hip: Everything You Never Knew You Wanted to Know About Jazz Music, produced by the nationally recognized organization JazzReach. Leading voices in modern jazz such as Jonathan Barber, Carl Allen, and Keyon Harrold provide commentary throughout these videos, covering topics like jazz history, overviews of individual instruments, and much more. The first six episodes are available below, and the next six will come later this year. Each episode is accompanied by a detailed summary and lesson plan.
