Live-streaming resources for teachers, performers and producers

This page started out as an educational, inspirational, how to, “you can do it” resource.

We’ve moved things around and all those resources are here.


Two big ways fans can help:

1. Please spread the word. The unglamorous reality is that musicians only get paid when they work and it’s a tough business in the best of times. At the moment 100% of their gigs are cancelled. There’s no unemployment insurance or health benefits for the vast majority of working musicians.

2. This most generous, uncomplaining, and positive part of our society needs our help and encouragement now. Under normal circumstances,  they’re always at the front of the line when it comes to contributing their services to help others in need.

If you’re lucky enough to be standing on solid ground, open up your wallets and treat these livestreams like front row concert tickets and pay the musicians accordingly.

PLEASE SHARE THIS PAGE WIDELY. We’re the only organized and annotated source of jazz live-streaming info available anywhere right now
