    Juneau offers the setting...Juneau Jazz and Classics makes it happen.
    Surrounded by rugged mountains, the majestic Juneau Icefield, and the pristine waters of the Inside Passage, Alaska's capital city celebrates an abundance of culture, seafood, outdoor activities and wildlife. Add this excellent music festival to the mix and Juneau becomes not only an arts center for the inspired adventurer, but a city unlike any other.

    Just imagine a day like this...take a thrilling flightseeing trip to the spectacular Juneau Icefield or spend the afternoon on a whalewatching and wildlife tour, then spend the evening in the company of Mozart or Brahms. Or, try your luck landing a feisty King Salmon or exploring Juneau's historic mining ruins, then dancing to the daring and innovative sounds of The Holmes Brothers or Cyril Neville and the Uptown Allstars.
