International Association of Schools of JazzIASJ: the International Association of Schools of Jazz
The IASJ connects students, educators and directors of jazz studies on a worldwide level. For over 25 years schools of jazz that offer toplevel professional jazz education are connected through the IASJ. Every year an IASJ Jazz Meeting takes place in a different country in the world. During one week around 100 students, educators and staff people learn, teach, perform and network. Relations between students, educators and staff people once started during IASJ Jazz Meetings lead to longlife succesful professional collaborations.
“The future of jazz is connected to jazz education
and the IASJ is the chain.”
