Over the last decade no other company or organization has been more instrumental in the growth of live music and jazz in Shanghai than JZ. A major player in all aspects of China’s growing music industry, every year we showcase big international names at Shanghai’s largest outdoor music festival, The JZ Music Festival Shanghai. Our two JZ Club’s, located in Shanghai and Hangzhou respectively, are widely known as China’s top Jazz Music Venues and our regular live concerts and tours feature some of the biggest names in Jazz and contemporary music, both local and international. In addition, the Shanghai Jazz Conservatory or “JZ School” has over 30 full time teachers and is the leading source of contemporary music education in Shanghai.
JZ is synonymous with music, jazz and Shanghai. It is our goal to provide top quality musical experiences and education, while elevating local appreciation for Jazz. By fostering mainland artists and popularizing jazz we hope to add Shanghai to the list of renowned international jazz cities such as Tokyo, Paris and New York.
