This August, two of Philadelphia’s premiere jazz institutions join forces for a monthlong pop-up jam session at Solar Myth. Internationally acclaimed creative music presenting organization Ars Nova Workshop will team with Grammy-nominated pianist-bandleader Orrin Evans’ Imani Records label to present the Imani Records Jam Session, bringing together a mix of veteran jazz voices and new stars on the musical horizon. Taking place every Tuesday from August 1 through August 22, the series transports the venerable jam session tradition into the modern era, offering aspiring musicians the opportunity to share the stage with some of modern jazz’s most adventurous voices at the city’s new home for forward-seeking sounds.
