Simply put, Orlando loves jazz. While the genre evolved in the smoky jazz clubs of New Orleans, some of jazz’s most iconic legends have performed in The City Beautiful, including Ray Charles and Ella Fitzgerald. Artists such as these would set the stage alight with performances of jazz classics as well as groovy improvisations, a defining feature of the genre. The Jazz Room in Orlando pays homage both to the legendary artists who once graced the city and to the wider world of jazz itself. Each performance delivers a rich blend of timeless classics and captivating journeys of improvisation.
