Order your own “Bix Musical Postcards” CD

It’s a “driving tour” you can take of Bix’s hometown. Each cut tells the story of the different sites that have significance to Bix Beiderbecke with narration, sound effects and Bix’s music. Click here for the list of souvenirs available from the Bix Society.

The mission of the Bix Beiderbecke Memorial Society is to perpetuate the music and memory of Leon "Bix" Beiderbecke through an annual jazz festival, jazz education programs, and the preservation of traditional jazz.

Endowment Fund Established

Looking to the future, The Bix Society has established an Endowment Fund through the Community Foundation of the Great River Bend.  
This was made possible through Society donations, and the generosity of several donors.  Now, we seek contributions to build on the Fund so it will eventually provide on-going revenue.  Read more about it on our news page.  Also, you can visit the Community Foundation of the Great River Bend website at:
 

The Clarion
(formerly Holiday Inn)
is also one of our festival Venues and a valued sponsor
