The Jazz Masters Series at the Berklee Performance Center The Berklee Performance Center is a former movie theater which the College in 1975 undertook to renovate into the acoustically fine and aesthetically attractive concert hall one sees today. The Jazz Masters Series at the Berklee Performance Center is a program to raise scholarship support for Berklee students, as well as offering Greater Boston residents the finest artists in jazz today. All proceeds from the Series are allocated to a Student Scholarship Fund which provides financial assistance to Berklee students.

The College’s full-time enrollment of 2500 students places it among the largest colleges of music in the world. The diversity and practical emphasis of the curriculum have attracted a student body that is international in character with students currently in attendance from more than 40 countries.
