Charles Lloyd: NEA Jazz Master Tribute


"This is a music of freedom and wonder. It uplifts, it inspires, it touches the heart, and it heals. It is transformational. Jazz is our indigenous art form and is constantly evolving while remaining deeply rooted in tradition and nourished by the American terroir. I have been drunk with the pursuit of ‘the sound’ all my life – and have been blessed to stand on the shoulders of those who came before me and gave encouragement – this is also part of the tradition."

— Charles Lloyd

2015 NEA Jazz Master Charles Lloyd's SFJAZZ Residency runs from 4/23-26!
