JazzScope was a monthly membership newsletter that was snail-mailed to all CIJS members for over three decades (our newsletter is now sent via email). The new JazzScope digest, created during our 45th Anniversary Season, is designed to chronicle the history, stories, artists and legacy of jazz in Central Illinois since our founding in the summer of 1978.

We welcome any historical and/or recent photos, events and articles you would like to share. Please use the form below to contribute, and be sure to provide sources and credit where it is due. In the meantime, we’d love to see you at any of our upcoming concerts!
