Jazz Camera also features photographs of younger players and rising stars, including pianist Zoe Rahman and Birmingham saxophonist Soweto Kinch.
The exhibition is open from 10am-6pm each day, and during evening performances, on Symphony Hall Level 4 Foyer. Admission free. Prints of the exhibition images are available for sale.
