“Stellar jazz in La Jolla”
Athenaeum Jazz returns to the Scripps Research Auditorium for a special 30th anniversary season. This fall, we celebrate 30 years of Athenaeum Jazz at Scripps Research with a lineup that brings together new and familiar voices. The fall series showcases the talents of three extraordinary artists who have each brought their distinctive voices to the world of jazz: Joshua Redman on Tuesday, November 3; David Sánchez on Sunday, November 15; and Gabrielle Cavassa on Thursday, December 3. Redman and Sánchez perform at the Scripps Research Auditorium as part of the anniversary celebration, while Cavassa brings the series to a close at the Athenaeum Music & Arts Library in La Jolla.

“This thoughtful series presents jazz with the seriousness and dignity becoming the art form.”
“One of the west coast’s more discerning jazz concert series…”
“The intimate and acoustically pristine Athenaeum Library was packed with fans primed for the event.”
“What is even more impressive than the many stellar musicians who have appeared there is that the Jazz at the Athenaeum series has endured—and thrived—for three decades. Moreover, its jazz programming has been guided the entire time by a single curator, Daniel Atkinson, whose longevity equals that of the series.”
