Source for Jazz Videos

I was searching for some clips to show my 6th grade general music classes during our upcoming unit on jazz and came across this site. I really like that I can go to the directory and find the artist I need quickly and that there are no comments to worry about. It has also helped me discover some performances I didn't know about.  The Chick Corea/Makoto Ozone performance of Mozart's Double Concerto is awesome!

I like using the clips with my lessons to bring these people to life for my students. Just listening to a recording is good and necessary, but there's something special about getting to see a great like Louis Armstrong perform their own music.
