Jeremy Pelt

Welcome to the VERMONT JAZZ CENTER

The Vermont Jazz Center is excited to present a live stream concert with Jeremy Pelt.  The pieces included in this performance are from his new record: “Griot, This is Important.” The musical compositions were inspired by conversations with other jazz luminaries, short sections will be interspersed throughout the concert. Pelt’s website states: “It is only natural that Jeremy Pelt’s voracious curiosity would lead him to investigate the West African Griot tradition where stories, reminiscences and accomplishments from times past are handed down as oral histories.”

We will be Live streaming on our website and on the VJC facebook page.

In past years, our concerts happen “live” and in person and are valued at $40 per ticket. This year, with live streaming, we are relying on donations to offset costs. Please give generously and support live music.
