Establishing the IASJ is by far the most important work I have done in my life as a professional musician. It surpasses my own career and experiences, which although have made me what I am, pale in comparison to the positive and far reaching work that the organization has accomplished and continues doing. I feel like I have made a real contribution to the world and will continue my work in this way as long as possible.
Founded in 1989 the IASJ ever since has been beneficial to thousands of people involved in jazz education. The IASJ enables students, teachers and staff of jazz school around the world to connect, to learn from each other and to perform at the highest international level. Contributing to and benefitting from the IASJ means shaping and being shaped by jazz, an international living artform.
