The 2019-2020 season marks the 20th anniversary of the Paradise Jazz Series, which was inaugurated by the DSO in 1999 to honor Orchestra Hall’s ten-year history as the Paradise Theatre, and the DSO remains one of few major orchestras to present a jazz series on its main stage. Erb Jazz Chair Terence Blanchard leads an all-star band featuring artists who have performed on the Paradise Jazz Series to celebrate two decades of world-class jazz on the Orchestra Hall stage.
