Ottawa has a very lively jazz scene. These are some clubs that have jazz
several nights a week. I mention a few local musicians who are great
players and may be playing when you're in town. You might also check with
the National Arts Centre, Fourth Stage, which occasionally has some great
jazz concerts.
