Welcome!

TranzitionzJazz is one of the most appreciated musical acts in Toronto. In our efforts to collaborate with music and interpretations, we rise to the challenge of musical transitions with our repertoire. We play lots of great songs that blend into compelling variations that people love to hear.  We perform jazz standards and jazz versions of well-known tunes. 

Meet the band… Jim Thomas, TJ leader, on jazz flute, Nick Arseneau on bass, Stu Mein on drums Victor Xu on piano, and Johanna Lyn on vocals. 

By design, we perform music for good causes, as well as to help promote local artists in the GTA. In the past, we've performed in support of Parkinson’s, Food banks, Alzheimer’s, and front-line healthcare workers.  We continue to play and seek out shows at clubs, festivals and other events, so if you want an evening or afternoon of great musical entertainment, give us a call.

 

Jim Thomas's interview is with Dave Brown on AMI - Accessibility Media Inc. www.ami.ca
