The Jazz Gallery Mentoring Series - Mentorship has always been a key theme in jazz history. Most of today’s great jazz musicians were raised through informal channels and gained invaluable experience working alongside their heroes. Future generations of great jazz will depend on the continuation of this tradition that is, unfortunately, becoming less common as jazz education has become more formalized. The Jazz Gallery developed its Mentorship Program to cultivate a group of senior-level jazz musicians as mentors and to provide aspiring musicians with the opportunity to learn under their guidance. These young musicians will have the opportunity to perform in four concerts that are booked as a mini-tour.

Jaleel Shaw won the 2014 Downbeat Critics Poll's for Rising Star Alto Saxophonist. He is a longtime member of the Roy Haynes Quartet and Tom Harrell’s “Colors Of A Dream.” He has performed with Christian McBride, Jason Moran, the Mingus Big Band, Pat Metheny, Stefon Harris, Roy Hargrove, Chick Corea, Dave Holland and Jimmy Cobb. Shaw's debut album, Perspective (2005), received rave reviews from The New York Times and Jazzwise Magazine. All About Jazz named the album one of the top five debut albums of 2005; his composition “The Heavyweight Champion” received an ASCAP Young Jazz Composer Award.

Cameron Campbell, originally from Worcester, Massachusetts, was a featured performer in 2019 alongside legendary pianists George Cables, Joanne Brackeen and Kenny Werner. Most recently, he has toured the United States, Japan and Brazil with two-time Grammy-winning vocalist Samara Joy. In addition, Campbell has had the privilege of sharing the stage with Kendrick Scott, Jaleel Shaw, Maurice Brown and Marcus Gilmore.
