Oakland Jazz Choir Benefit Concert

Presented by Calliope: East Bay Music & Arts

Members of the Oakland Jazz Choir

NEW DATE for this Special Event: A joyful jazz vocal romp through cool originals and the classics

About this event

Oakland born and bred, The Oakland Jazz Choir is one of just a few community jazz choirs in the nation singing cool original and standard jazz material in a distinctive choral jazz setting.

OJC has taken many shapes, sizes and forms over the years but the common denominator has always been the same: joy of expression, using the voice to communicate the triumphs, as well as the turbulence, of the human spirit. They are committed to bringing vocal jazz performance and education to underserved audiences in the Bay Area and beyond.

OJC, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, has been singing & bringing innovative, & unique vocal jazz to the Bay Area since 1992.

2020 was the year that silenced choirs around the world but we faced and overcame our personal pandemic challenges, and we’re thrilled to say we’re back in 2022!

This show will be a joint benefit concert for Oakland Jazz Choir and Calliope: East Bay Music & Arts. Here's to keeping the music alive!
