Jazz Camp Week 2 Showcase schedule now available
Tonight’s the night! The Jazz Camp Week 2 Showcase will feature 230 rising stars of jazz performing on four stages. How do you find out who is performing on which stage at which time? Download the Jazz Camp Showcase schedule below.
Here’s how the schedule is organized:
- Jazz Camp participants are listed alphabetically by last name
- The center column indicates combos that rehearse in the early afternoon, which are known as “early combos”
- The right column indicates combos that rehearse in the late afternoon, which are known as “late combos”
The numbers indicate the order in which the combos perform on a particular stage:
- If your combo is indicated as “05”, that means the combo will be the fifth combo to perform.
- Performances begin at 7 p.m. on Dinkelspiel, Campbell, and Braun Rehearsal Hall; performances on the Outdoor Stage begin at 6 p.m.
- Each performance takes approximately 10 minutes, so a combo slated to perform fifth on the Dinkelspiel stage would begin at 7:50 p.m.
- A combo slated to perform eighth on the Outdoor stage would begin at 7:10 p.m.

Stanford Jazz creates Bobby Hutcherson Scholarship
Following an electrifying performance that had his longtime fans ranking it among the best they’d seen from him in some time, Bobby Hutcherson was honored by Stanford Jazz Workshop Founder and Artistic and Executive Director Jim Nadel with the announcement of the Bobby Hutcherson Scholarship. The great vibraphonist and composer — joined in his Stanford Jazz Festival performance by legendary organist Joey DeFrancesco, guitarist Paul Bollenback, and Bobby’s son, Barry Hutcherson, on drums — was visibly moved by the presentation of an award commemorating the creation of the scholarship, and spoke to the audience about the importance of encouraging young jazz artists, as well as the role that the audience itself plays in the creation of a jazz performance.
The Bobby Hutcherson Scholarship will be awarded to selected, deserving young jazz musicians to enable them to attend the Stanford Jazz Camp or Jazz Residency, held on the campus of Stanford University each summer.
