A Workshop Built for Adult Learners!

Welcome to JazzWire Twin Cities Summit (July 17-19, 2025), one of the few jazz workshops in the nation focused on passionate ADULT players and students. Built for adults from the ground up, our three-day jazz camp features a renowned faculty of top-notch recording artists and players, who also happen to be great teachers.

 

JazzWire and Artistic Director Jeff Antoniuk have produced workshops and jazz camps for adult learners for over 25 years in the USA and Canada, and he is bringing his vision to the Twin Cities. At The Summit, you will have plenty of playing time in your small combo, electives, and instrument specific masterclasses, daily jam sessions, and more. When was the last time you got to play jazz, with others, three days straight? For many of us, the answer is years, or never. Now's the time!

 

Jeff Antoniuk is Artistic Director and one of your teachers for the Summit. He has hundreds of students in over 25 countries through JazzWire, and his free educational videos have been viewed on YouTube well over three million times. Jeff has been called “the best teacher I’ve ever had” by many students, and his warm and supportive style sets a light tone for the workshop. But don’t let that attitude fool you—we are serious about our learning too!

A word from our Artist Director, Jeff Antoniuk:

The Twin Cities Summit & JazzWire:

The Most Forward-Thinking Jazz Workshop On Earth!

Piano and hands

Over the past 20 years, what we hear most at the end of a workshop is “I wish I knew at the beginning of The Summit what I know now. I’d be so much further ahead!” We’ve taken that sentiment to heart, and have created an amazing wholistic experience that begins well before you arrive at the workshop, and continues long after.

JazzWire is an online, global community for adult jazz students, with hundreds of members from over 25 different counties. All musicians attending full days of the Twin Cities Summit are JazzWire members, so your experience with us is unlike that of any other camp or workshop in the world.

Once you join JazzWire, you’ll be able to spend the months leading up to the Twin Cities Summit digging deeper in to our music selections. You’ll be better prepared, more relaxed and confident, and you’ll have met ALL of your Summit workshop peers in advance. JazzWire is a subscription platform, at $50 USD/mo, and you get six months free.
