The SummerJazz concerts are presented each year by the Marblehead Jazz Associates, founded in 1985 by Marblehead’s Gene Arnould, JoAnne King and Richard Conte out of a passion for good classical and contemporary jazz. There are generally six to eight summer concerts each year, plus Rebecca Parris returns each December for a holiday concert.
