Concerts in the Courtyard: Jump City 8

Enjoy a concert under the stars in the Museum's outdoor courtyard featuring music by Jump City 8. The Jump City 8 brings Philly's brotherly love to West Coast Jazz. After coming off the road, the Los Angeles based musicians of the great 1940's big-bands started writing highly stylized arrangements of the Great American Songbook. Rooted in swing, and inspired by the sun, sand, and surf of a 1950's California life-style, these arrangements produced sounds unique to the world of jazz.
