7 – 9 PM

Sacramento's longest-running summer jazz series embarks on a journey with an innovative lineup of contemporary musicians interpreting and blending jazz influences with their own unique styles. Enjoy live music in a loose, easy-going atmosphere in the Crocker's outdoor courtyard and bring a chair for the best seat in the house. Each concert consists of two 45-minute sets separated by a 15-minute intermission where you can stretch your legs with a guided art chat in the galleries, shop in the Museum store, or grab a bite to eat from Majka at the Crocker.

New York saxophonist Daniel Bennett has been hailed as one of the most original and unpredictable musical voices of his generation. Blending a mix of jazz, folk, and minimalism, the Daniel Bennett Group’s genre-bending sound captivates audiences across the world.
