there? If so, how was the experience?

and I gave a jazz guitar duo performance in The Great Guitar Series at Macungie Institute in late March.
AAJ: Is there a market for jazz?
CA: I feel that there is a tremendous market for jazz. The recording industry's shortcomings seem to be providing a boost in the demand for live concerts. Jazz is at its best live. They can't download the live experience. The Internet has provided unprecedented opportunities to spread the word of jazz all over the world.
