Jazz at Newport 2011 Education with Jeff Hamilton

Eighth Annual Jazz at Newport September 30th - October 2, 2011
Now know as the "Oregon Coast Jazz Party"
As Jazz at Newport marks its eighth year, its recognition and popularity grows. The event brings world-class jazz to the central Oregon coast in the "jazz party" format, which means that visiting musicians will appear in different combinations at different times, known as "sets," over the course of the festival. Jazz at Newport runs Sept. 30 to Oct. 2 this year, at the Newport Performing Arts Center and the Shilo Inn Suites Hotel in Newport, Oregon.
Oregon Coast Council for the Arts (OCCA) is the organizational sponsor of the international event, and partners with local businesses and more than 60 volunteers in the production of the festival.
The festival's focus has always been to present world-class jazz in a beautiful coastal setting -- and this year is no different: Music Director Holly Hofmann has put together a roster of such jazz lights as Monty Alexander, Hassan Shakur, Anat Cohen, Howard Alden, Jeff Hamilton Trio, Kristin Korb, Lewis Nash, Weber Iago, Terell Stafford, and Mike Wofford, to name just a few. David Captein, Tamir Hendelman, Mike Horsfall, Christoph Luty, the Weber Iago/David Valdez Chamber Jazz Project and Portland's PDX Jazz Quintet round out the roster.
Support for Jazz at Newport is provided by the City of Newport and festival sponsor Rev. Carol Stubbs Smith, as well as 2011 Jazz Club members Anonymous, Larry & MaryAnn Beggs, Cathleen Donnellan & Gil Sylvia, Jim & Sue Douglas, Ernie Drapela, Laurel Freed, Frank & Michelle Geltner, Jim & Judy Hamblin, Jeannette Hofer, Ramona Martin, James & Jean Morrison, Kay Moxness, Twylah Olson, Nancy Jane Reid & Peter Lawson, Greg & Sheila Sammons, Vern Schervem, Doug & Sue Wills and Barry & Phyllis Winters. OCCA is also grateful for the support of the 2011 Jazz Hotels, which include Hallmark Inns & Resort, La Quinta Inn & Suites, the Shilo Inn Suites Hotel, and the Whaler Motel; and thanks the many jazz patrons who also contribute to the festival.
