In the Mix

How do you like your jazz?

Hot? Contemporary? Crazy? Smooth?

It's all here in the mix, with dozens of club-style sets each season, usually three different acts each night. Tonight the mix includes groups coached by guitarist Joe Morris and drummer Rakalam Bob Moses.

These student ensembles are the club headliners of tomorrow—coached by leading jazz and improvising artists from the New England Conservatory faculty.
