Jazz in the Pines Festival & Student Clinic

June 30th – July 13th, 2024

For 30 years, Idyllwild Arts has brought legendary jazz giants from across the United States to perform for eager audiences and most recently, to work alongside the young jazz enthusiasts of The Jazz In the Pines Student Clinic.  As we celebrate this momentous occasion, we announce that 2024 will be the final Jazz In The Pines Festival at Idyllwild Arts.  We pass the torch on to the educators and performers of The Jazz In the Pines Student Clinic as they continue to carry this beloved art form into the future for years to come.  Please consider a donation during our final festival year, to support student scholarships at Idyllwild Arts. We thank our festival co-founder, Dr. Marshall Hawkins, for his vision, and for playing a vital role in helping to secure hundreds of thousands of dollars in scholarship support for deserving and talented young jazz musicians from around the world. This year’s 30th Anniversary Festival will be in memory of the late jazz guitar giant, our beloved Bob Boss.

Jazz thrives and grows when it is passed unselfishly from generation to generation. Come to the Idyllwild Summer Jazz Intensive and learn from a generation of greats. This two-week session is built around the return of Jazz In The Pines, giving students an exciting opportunity to learn from and see performances from Jazz greats in an intimate festival environment, a truly unique experience not offered at other camps.

Jazz In The Pines supports and empowers the students of Idyllwild Arts through an inter-generational teaching-artist model anchored in the strategies of jazz music and the artistry of its greatest practitioners.

The new Jazz In The Pines is a state of mind. It’s an expression of shared wonder about the power of jazz not only to speak generation after generation, but to help one generation speak to another generation.

The trip up the mountain becomes more than a physical journey; it becomes a journey of awakening to a new way of being – a state of consciousness characterized by self-awareness, authentic connection, mutual respect, clear communication, personal mastery, common language and individual expression in service of a common ideal.

By bringing together artists of all ages, Jazz In The Pines now aligns with what Idyllwild Arts has done exceptionally well for nearly 75 years. By ensuring a continuing dialogue of artistic expression, younger generations are taught to embrace the universal language of the arts to change lives and connect with human kind.
