    The faculty of the 2009 Stanford Jazz Workshop is an extraordinary gathering of jazz talent. This unprecedented roster spans three generations, from some of the most exciting young players around to pioneers who originated the sounds of modern jazz. Representing a multitude of styles, schools, and traditions, these artists embody the diversity and vitality of jazz today. The SJW All-Star Jam Session is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to hear this unique lineup of musicians play together in an informal setting. More than any other type of performance, a great jam session brings out the spontaneous brilliance of improvised jazz; groups are assembled on the fly and the mixing and matching of musical personalities means that anything can happen. You’ll hear inspired groupings of players that you won’t find anywhere else, and the casual atmosphere gives a special energy to the performance. With so many fantastic musicians on the program, this year’s All-Star Jam Session offers the best of all possible worlds for jazz lovers.
