Jazz Powers Up in Pittsburgh


Jazz in Pittsburgh has powered up for the Summer - more than 200 jazz events per month in July and August!

BNY Mellon Pittsburgh JazzLive has returned for a 10 week run at new location from the Cultural District. We visited with Terri Bell of the Cultural Trust to get more details.

The Pittsburgh international Jazz Festival 2021 is scheduled for September 17-19 (Janis Burley Wilson shared a sneak preview with us, earlier), plus the return of the Monroeville Jazz Festival on September 4th and BPEP Jazz at the Heinz History Center, September 20th.

Plus, the return of a full season at MCG Jazz, starting with the Yellowjackets, September 24th and 25th.

There’s much more being shared with WZUM every day, and we are rushing to keep track of it all. Check the calendar at Jazz Central on the schedules for Con Alma, MCGJazz, Kingfly Spirits, the Tryp Hotel, the Helltown Taproom, the August Wilson African American Cultural Center and more.

Jazz Endures in Pittsburgh, and on the air with WZUM!
