After each Jazz & Sonic Arts concert, follow the artists to CLVB ’33 for a free, informal jam.

These chill, spontaneity-filled evenings are structured like jazz itself: nothing is planned, and improvisation is king. It’s a casual, late-night atmosphere that fosters creativity and collaboration in the moment. Grab a drink, strike up a chat, and enjoy some freewheeling tunes.

The two-and-a-half-week Jazz & Sonic Arts residency is an innovative artistic development opportunity for jazz and sound musicians. The program encourages participants to engage with sound in innovative ways, using improvisation, experimentation, and technology to expand the sonic possibilities of music.

Please note that performing is limited to Jazz & Sonic Arts 2026 program participants.

Music is generously supported by the Alice and Betty Schultz Scholarships Endowment Fund for Dance and Music, the Maria Francisca Josepha Brouwer Scholarship Fund for Dutch Artists, and the Yolande Freeze Master Artists in Music Fund.
