Thinking Spaces: “Improv for Scientists”

University of Guelph, MacKinnon Building 87 Trent Ln, Guelph, Ontario, Canada

Guelph Jazz Festival Colloquium 2023

ImprovLab MacKinnon Room 108, 87 Trent Lane, University of Guelph, Guelph, Ontario, Canada

In this “third decade,” a nod to a 1984 recording by former GJF performers The Art Ensemble of Chicago—a group that has left its own indelible mark on the history of jazz—we pause to consider the vital role that this home-grown community-based event, the Guelph Jazz Festival, has played in shaping the Canadian (and, indeed, the international) musical landscape.
