Jazz Live International was an “all-out blitz” of live jazz on the “Burgh”. The Pittsburgh Cultural Trust brought accomplished, international artists to play in 23 separate downtown venues. It was all in one night, and man, was the music sweet! If you know me, I love portraits of musicians in the moment! There is so much beauty in their faces when they make that instrument flood with melody. It is an honor to be around so much award-winning talent! Here are some of my favorite portraits…
Great moment captured of photographer Renee Rosensteel feeling the music! Thanks Renee for the help in a jam : )
All photography by Joey Kennedy
