The Jazz Institute of Chicago was founded in 1969 by a small band of jazz fans, writers, club owners and musicians who came together to preserve the historical roots of the Chicago’s jazz music when rock ‘n roll had become the reigning cultural and financial force in American music. The Institute sponsors the world renown Chicago Jazz and Heritiage Festival, as well as student workshops (”Jazz Links”) that pair promising high school jazz musicians with their world class professional counterparts. Definitely a must visit for hard-core jazz enthusiasts.
