Also an annual “party”, KBEM’s Minnesota Jazz Legends celebrated its 10th year honoring our local jazz history and the great musicians at the Minnesota History Center (April 14). Great music and even better stories. And of course I heard a lot of other great jazz performances in April but we need to get to coming attractions! Honestly this is a too-brief list of the great jazz happening around the Twin Cities in May. Not only do each of the above venues boast many more outstanding gigs, there’s great jazz happening at many more venues.
