The best jazz festivals offer more great performances than you could possibly attend in their entirety, presented in environments well-matched to the music at hand.

By that definition, the Hyde Park Jazz Festival stands out among Chicago's jazz soirees, its ninth annual edition this year presenting three world premieres: by trumpeter Ambrose Akinmusire, cellist Tomeka Reid and drummer and visual artist Mikel Patrick Avery.
