11 Art of Jazz: BlueStreet Jazz Voices
The BlueStreet Jazz Voices is a musical collective whose mission is to promote vocal jazz music in the Seattle community and provide high-quality, entertaining, and moving musical experiences for audiences and performers alike. The new ensemble has built quite a following with their combination of original arrangements of jazz standards, lush ballads, and contemporary jazz. Boasting 20-members, BlueStreet is a diverse group of musicians who are united by their passion for jazz interpretation. As one critic has noted: “The only thing matching the joy that the ensemble brings to the stage is the joy they feel while creating music together.” Ken Wilson and Andy Carr serve as artistic and instrumental director respectively. The BlueStreet voices perform on Thursday, March 11 at 5:30pm as part of the ongoing Art of Jazz Series at the Seattle Art Museum. Admission to the performance is free with your museum tickets. Also- catch the BlueStreet Jazz Voices in performance with guests Stephanie Nakasian and the Todd Beamer High School Vocal Jazz Ensemble at the West Seattle HS Performing Arts Center (3000 California Ave SW) on Saturday, March 13 at 7:30pm.

13 Crepuscule & Jesse Canterbury's Vertigo
Southern California's Crepuscule Trio features the outstanding saxophonist Ken Kawamura, bassist Anthony Shadduck, and drummer Alan Cook. Performing freely improvised music rooted deeply in the jazz tradition, Crepuscule is an exciting, multi-directional ensemble. Adventurous, subtle, and effortlessly listenable. Opening is Seattle clarinetist Jesse Canterbury's Vertigo. Canterbury leads an all-acoustic ensemble in a strikingly original mix of chamber music, improvisation, and tune-oriented melodic material informed and inspired by the music of clarinetists Louis Sclavis and Michael Moore. The quartet features Joanne DeMars on cello, Chris Stover on trombone, and the great Tom Baker on guitar. Crepuscule & Vertigo perform at the Chapel Performance Space in the Good Shepherd Center (4649 Sunnyside Ave N) on Saturday, March 13 at 8pm.

19 Hot Java Cool Jazz
Starbucks presents the 15th Annual Hot Java Cool Jazz concert, benefiting music education in Seattle public schools. Starbucks presents Hot Java Cool Jazz as a way to help local high school music programs bridge the gap between what they receive in funding and what they actually need. But more than a benefit concert, Hot Java Cool Jazz is an evening of great big band jazz presented by some of Seattle's award-winning high school jazz programs. This year, Garfield, Edmonds-Woodway, Mountlake Terrace, Newport, and Roosevelt High School will take the Paramout stage in support of their arts programs. The benefit is on Friday March 19 at 7:30pm at the Paramount Theatre (911 Pike St). For more information of to purchase tickets online visit www.stgpresents.org.
