Living Jazz`s mission to build community, cultivate creativity, and enrich lives through the love of Jazz. Living Jazz has produced Jazz Camp West since 1984. Living Jazz also created the Oakland Interfaith Gospel Choir in 1986 (remaining it's parent organization until 1991); the Fall and Spring Music Series in 1988; RhythmVoice in 1990; Jazz Camp Weekend in 1991; the Oakland Jazz Choir in 1992 (remaining it`s parent organization until 2006); "In the Name Of Love", The Annual Musical Tribute honoring Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in 2001; the Oakland Children`s Community Choir in 2005; and Jam Camp West in 2008. Jazz Camp West is an 8-day jazz music, dance and vocal program for teens and adults of all musical abilities. Now in its 25th season, Jazz Camp West creates a living music community encompassing 45 all-star faculty and approximately 250 students of all ages (12 and up) and economic and cultural backgrounds. Our faculty has included such notable artists as Tuck and Patti, Bobby McFerrin, Ray Drummond, George Cables, Rufus Reid, John Handy, Buddy Collette, Andy Narell, Buddy Montgomery, Mark Murphy, Mississippi Johnny Waters, Nancy King, Eddie Marshall, Bobby Hutcherson, Madeline Eastman, Pete Escovedo, Anthony Braxton, Tandy Beal and many others. Jazz Camp has developed a reputation for not only being a high-quality jazz music program, but is equally known as an opportunity for personal growth and ongoing membership in an inspirational creative community. This program is 75-80% supported by tuitions, along with foundation and government support, earned income from concessions, raffle, and silent auction, as well as private contributions.
