ONE OF THE MANY RECENT LOCAL HIGHLIGHTS! 
BILL SAITTA, arguably the best jazz bass player in the Valley, was given a birthday party by his friends and fellow musicians at Cafe Aroma in Idyllwild. The many guests included the wonderful YVE EVANS, shown here with Bill and drummer, JAY LEWIS! (Click on our Photo pages for more great pictures.)

We mourn the sudden loss of ART THORSEN. Art was one of the Valley's staunchest supporters of jazz, not the least being his annual Jazz Appreciation Day which he hosted for local musicians. He is missed, but his memory is kept alive by the many wonderful photographs that he took of jazz performers that appear on this website.
