World Saxophone Quartet
While known principally for their contribution to free jazz improvisation, the WSQ has always taken a compositional / improvisational approach to their music, and almost single-handedly pioneered the saxophone quartet format. Their program for the Guelph Jazz Festival, featuring the music and inspiration of Jimi Hendrix, is another exciting chapter in this story.

Outstallations
This year’s jazz festival features three imaginative outdoor events, dubbed “Outstallations” by Artistic Director, Ajay Heble. They're designed to reach new audiences and present unconventional music in Guelph’s public spaces. They include:
• Three Parades
• Acoustic Orienteering
• Percussion in the Park
These free events will happen in downtown Guelph from Friday to Sunday.
