WBGO FREE Kids Jazz Concert Series presents “Big Drum, Small World”
Travel around the world meeting composers from West Africa, Israel, Cuba, India, and the United States speaking one common language, Jazz. See how traditional American jazz has inspired each, blending with their individual cultural heritages, and created their artistic visions.

This season’s five multi-media concert experiences for kids feature The Metta Quintet, the resident ensemble of JazzReach. The free and interactive, hour-long concerts give kids opportunities to learn about a new jazzy theme each Saturday and will take place in Essex County, NJ. Q&A sessions with the artists, small gifts, and a chance to win a prize, are just some of the reasons to come out and join us! Full series runs Saturdays March 28th to May 2nd , calendar at www.wbgo.org/kids .

The concerts are free and open to the general public. Tickets are handed out in the lobby of each venue on the day of performance only and on a first-come, first-served basis. We cannot guarantee seats prior to each program, except for groups with reservations. Adults must be accompanied by a child. All venues are handicapped accessible.
