Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series! On this episode, we talk with COO & Guitarist Zach Larmer, Bass Player & Student Director Noah Orlowsky, and Singer Valentina Koehler of the Young Musicians Unite (YMU) Jazz Collective in Miami. This inspiring youth-driven group has been performing, recording, and sharing their love of jazz throughout Florida—while learning the craft at a high level. They recently returned from a groundbreaking cultural exchange tour in Brazil, the first of its kind for YMU, which is the second-largest provider of free music education in the U.S. We dive into their mission, history, travels, recordings, and vision for the future. A vibrant story of jazz, education, and cultural connection. Enjoy!
