The Thailand International Jazz Conference (TIJC) is a three-day jazz music event initiated in 2009 by the College of Music, Mahidol University, aimed at presenting top-quality jazz music to the public and offering jazz education to interested musicians (both students and the general public). TIJC is held in the university venue and consists of three main elements, i.e., music performance, Jazz Education Activities, TIJC Solo Competition, and TIJC Jazz Band Competition, which are open for general professional jazz musicians.
Background.
Currently, the jazz music scene in Thailand has seen continuous growth. The number of listeners, musicians, and composers interested in jazz music is expanding. This includes various activities in the form of a jazz Festival, jazz concerts featuring both domestic and international artists, and recordings from local artists in the jazz style. This expansion has resulted in the expansion of the Thai jazz education system, both in the Thai government university and the Thai private university system, which is reflected in the academic activities in jazz music that focus primarily on educational development, such as organizing jazz competitions, organizing workshops and various jazz seminars.
However, in the variety of jazz activities currently taking place in Thailand, there is no concrete link between business and educational development. This can be seen from the fact that the business sector has organized most jazz activities. It has not yet focused on providing society with true knowledge and understanding of jazz.
Therefore, the College of Music, Mahidol University, has organized the “Jazz for Learning Project,” known as the Thailand International Jazz Conference (TIJC). The primary objective is to seriously develop Thailand's jazz music industry in terms of performance and academics.
The objectives of the Thailand International Jazz Conference (TIJC) include the following:
The TIJC Lifetime Achievement Award.
The TIJC Lifetime Achievement Award was established in 2009 to honor those who have contributed outstandingly to Thailand's jazz scene

The TIJC Youth Camp.
The Thailand International Jazz Conference Youth Camp (TIJC Youth Camp) allows children aged 7–15 to learn about jazz music at a young age. The jazz Camp activities can be divided into lectures (improvisation, history, and theory) and performance subjects (Instrumental and Ensemble). Students will be divided into groups according to their comprehension and improvisation ability in performance subjects, and learn to perform jazz music. The goal of learning is to improve their improvisation skills and play with others at the final concert of the jazz camp.
