Jazz Legends in Concert LIVE has taken place poolside at the Hilton Tucson El Conquistador Golf and Tennis Resort for many years. Each year, a new ensemble of Jazz Legends, individually famous for their unique work, comes to Tucson to give audiences an unforgettable performance.

Hosts Al and Marilyn Cook began the Jazz Legends concert series in their backyard 11 years ago, as a fundraiser for the Arts Council. The popular jazz concert has attracted larger audiences each year. All the monies raised from this spectacular event will go directly back to local schools to support dwindling music and art programs.
