Sweet & Hot Music Festival Reviews

Janet Klein Vamps

With 14 Hours of continuous jazz playing in up to eight separate locations at the same time, this is one of the finest combination Jazz Party/Festival in the U.S. & the World.

LA Jazz Scene

It is a special weekend, one that should never be missed by any serious jazz fan.

Scott Yanow
Jazz Critic

There were so many highlights throughout this festival here are a few; Jack Sheldon Big Band roaring through their performance; Tommy Saunders paying tribute to Wild Bill Davison with humorous stories and hot solos; Howard Alden, Bucky Pizzarelli and bassist Dave Stone during a set that can only be called exquisite; clarinet and tenor summits; and much more.
