Giant Step Arts, an innovative, artist-focused non-profit organization, launched by a renowned photographer, Jimmy Katz, presents one of a kind performances by modern jazz masters.
Our Mission
Jazz is considered the only true American art form, and Giant Step Arts is committed to building on its rich history by supporting established artists and fostering young talent. Our goal is to present performances of original material by some of today's most innovative jazz musicians. To capture the band's energy and the creative synergy of the moment, all concerts are recorded "live" for independent release. What makes this endeavor truly unique is that, in addition to having control over their artistic projects, the musicians will receive all recordings and digital downloads of their musical output and retain complete ownership of their masters. Giant Step Arts also takes an active role in promoting and advancing the careers of these artists.
““ I feel it’s really important to support positive ideas in society. As artists, it’s our role to stand for the greatest aspects of world culture. To achieve this, Giant Step Arts has two goals: help the musicians express their full artistic potential and invite additional contributions so we can help more musicians.””
