Imagine fifty pianos scattered about the forest beckoning you to play, a choir of people singing around the bend of your hike, a salsa big band playing live while you dance underneath the twinkling stars...
Jazz Camp West is an 8-day jazz, Latin, funk, R&B, hip-hop, and soul music learning and festival experience for musicians and dancers in a lush redwood campground setting.
The program offers full days of inspiring instruction, open-mics, world-class faculty concerts, acoustic fireside performances, and late-night jams in an enchanted forest. This year features Artist in Residence Ulysses Owens Jr., and 40+ all-star faculty.
"Just the most amazing experience of a lifetime! I'm still waking up! It was so natural - the dirt - the trees! The people! I loved hearing music all day and all night long and most of all - I love the tools that I walked away with and the memories and pictures! Can't we do this all summer?" - Kappe Rouseeau, Camper
"The one week experience was way beyond what I expected. The instructors were excellent, and the faculty concerts were, in my opinion, world-class performances. I was blown away by the musicianship and the beautiful sounding music." - Eric Hoyer, Camper
