The Jazz Composers Alliance (JCA) is a non-profit organization dedicated to nurturing and promoting jazz composing, performing, creating, and preserving the art form. Founded in 1993 by Ron Savage and supported by some of the biggest names in jazz - such as Diana Krall, Chick Corea and Michael Brecker - the JCA has since become a major force in the promotion of jazz music. Since its inception, the JCA has promoted important concerts, awarded numerous prizes for excellence, provided master classes and education programs for aspiring young musicians, published books on jazz composers, and written many articles about their successes. The JCA is also active in organizing events such as festivals and performances at venues around the world. One of their most renowned awards is ‘The Jazz Composer of the Year award which they give annually to honor composers who have made significant contributions to jazz music in both composition and performance categories over the past year.
Previous winners include Charles Mingus, Pat Metheny, and Kenny Werner among others. In addition to its awards program, The JCA also hosts several concerts throughout each year which feature both emerging artists as well as established performers from various genres of contemporary music. These events often include soloists or small groups playing original works alongside classics from legendary players like Miles Davis, John Coltrane, or Charlie Parker. The JCA has also been instrumental in bringing together leading musicians from around the globe for inspiring performances exclusive to its members. Notable collaborations include Chick Corea's duet with Oscar Peterson at Carnegie Hall, Joe Lovano's trio with Herbie Hancock at Lincoln Center, and Bob Mintzer's quartet performance with Chick Corea at The Paramount Theatre. With an impressive list of celebrated guests ranging from Bobby McFerrin to Wynton Marsalis, it's clear that The Jazz Composers Alliance continues to be an influential force in the world of jazz composition today.
