A big THANK YOU to all of you who donated to The Nashville Jazz Workshop during The Big Payback. You helped raise over $12,000 to support the NJW’s classes, performances, and community events!
We are sad to announce the passing of George Yanok following a brief illness. Those of you around in the early days of the Nashville Jazz Institute and Nashville Jazz Workshop will remember George, a drummer, comedian, and screenwriter who played in NJW ensembles and emceed our fundraisers for a number of years. We will miss George. Click here for a remembrance.
