| Desc | Concerts & Events: The Earshot Jazz organization understands the need to earn its valued position within Seattle's vibrant cultural community every year, as it has for 40 years. Celebrating jazz as a cultural treasure of Black America, Earshot builds on the legacy of jazz in Seattle that grew from the fertile Jackson Street era. As a presenter, Earshot is widely respected for adventurous programming by creative artists who would typically not be considered viable on commercial stages. Concerts in 2024 included several national and international touring artists, the annual fall festival, and the Concert of Duke Ellington's Sacred Music. Overall, the organization produced 35 in-person concerts and 3 live-stream events, presented 299 artists of which 210 were resident artists, and distributed over 960 free tickets. | Desc |
