LA Modern Jazz Series

LA Modern Jazz Series at the Whitefire Theatre is an «exceptional new series» (Greg Burk,
) presenting world-​class music. The series focuses on modern jazz by virtuosic artists performing original music and innovative arrangements.
The Whitefire Theatre, with its sixteen-​foot ceilings, intimate ambience and excellent acoustics, provides the perfect setting for a concert series of this nature. Additionally, refreshments are served, CDs by all LA Modern Jazz Series artists are available for purchase, a visual art exhibit is on display and valet parking is provided.
«If the Valley’s new LA Modern Jazz Series is any indication, thank God modernism is back. Postmodernism sucked.. .. The crowd, which had responded strongly all night, rewarded (the performers’) intricate virtuosity with even harder clapping that shook this little black box of a room, which was nearly full.. .. Audiences in the Valley and adjacent areas oughta be jazzed to have a new jazz concert series in which jazzers may do further jazzing.»
– Greg Burk,
«It’s great to see that a new venue for jazz performers has been established. The crowd loved it and gave back thunderous applause.. . a very successful start for the Whitefire Theatre’s new jazz series. Let’s hope the jazz community comes out to support its efforts.»
– Bob Comden, LA Jazz Scene
