JAZZWAY 6004 is the home of local jazz/blues singer Marianne Matheny-Katz
and her husband, Howard Katz, as well as a hospitable new venue for house concerts in Baltimore. This elegant party-house
was built in 1966 by a well-known Baltimore bookie who hosted lavish, high-profile soirees. Local legend has it that both
Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra were guests here. Having purchased the house in a grossly neglected state a few years ago, Marianne
and Howard have lovingly refurbished it, and offer it now as a fun and intimate place to hear great jazz and other live music.
The performance space seats 50-60 people. Katz says
We have a complete sound system and a 6-ft Baldwin Grand piano and dinner is included with all concerts to provide a complete
and personalized entertainment evening.
The house concerts are booked as private parties and the tickets are donations
to the musicians. ALL TICKETS ARE SOLD IN ADVANCE - NO TICKETS ARE SOLD AT THE DOOR (NOR IS MONEY EXCHANGED) You can purchase
tickets for separate events by clicking on "Buy Tickets and CD's" on our website. If you prefer, you also have the option
of printing out the reservation form located on the same section of the website and mailing it to us with a check. All checks
must be received 5 days before the concert is held, but on-line tickets can be purchased up to the day of the concert.
We
announce our events on WEAA and WYPR as well as through jazz calendar links provided by the Baltimore Jazz Alliance (www.baltimorejazz.com
)and Baltimore Jazzine. Our concerts often sell out quickly, so to get direct announcements for our jazz events, go to the
home page where it says: "Join the e-mail list". Type in your e-mail address and hit the "JOIN" button next to it. We will
not share any of your information with others.
If you have attended a concert here - please encourage your friends
to visit the website and join the e-mail list. If you enjoyed youself at one of our concerts, please consider leaving some
feedback in our "Guestbook"
Matianne & Howard Katz invite you to help to preserve Baltimore's Jazz Heritage and
