They have once again they bring you six delightful Sunday afternoon jazz concerts that are held outdoors on the beautiful grounds of Filoli. Tables and chairs are set up on the tennis court surrounded by graceful oak trees. Parking is free and complimentary snacks and drinks, including beer and white wine are served. Boxed lunches are available for purchase in advance. As always, they feature an incredibly strong line-up of world-class jazz musicians.
