Jazz

Timeless, expressive, and ever-evolving—Jazz is where Canada's finest improvisers, composers, and stylists come to shine. This room spans the full spectrum of Canadian jazz, from swing and bebop to cool, fusion, free, and beyond. Featuring legends, hidden gems, and boundary-pushers from coast to coast, this collection captures the spirit of creativity, collaboration, and exploration that defines jazz. Always in motion, always in conversation—this is Canada’s jazz story, one note at a time.
