20 Years of Jazz Excellence in Downtown San Jose

Yamaha Drums provided pro drums and technical support for the 20th annual San Jose Jazz Festival, which featured 1,000 musicians on ten stages, including Maple Absolute, Oak Custom, Stage Custom Birch and Tour Custom kits. "No matter which Yamaha kit we placed on a given stage, a festival like this offers proof that all of our drum sets have what it takes to perform and adapt to a large number and drummers playing a variety of musical styles over the course of an entire weekend," said Jim Haler, Yamaha Drums product manager, who served as the main on-site drum tech.
