Jazz Institute of Chicago presents Front Row, a series of concerts, masterclasses, and conversations all about jazz. Recorded in our offices on the fifth floor of Chicago’s iconic Fine Arts Building overlooking Michigan Avenue, Buckingham Fountain, and Lake Michigan, the performance space also offers one of Chicago’s most captivating views.

Since 1969, JIC has produced some of the highest quality jazz experiences in the world and educated the public and our city’s youth on the power of jazz to connect people and change lives.  Front Row evolved from the Jazz Institute of Chicago’s public and education programs while taking full advantage of the distinct location. Front Row showcases of the rich tapestry of jazz: its performers, educators, composers, and scholars to further the JIC mission of promoting and nurturing jazz in all its forms.
