The 1905

Share

The 1905 is proud to be Portland's only full-time jazz club. It references the year the first Italian pizzeria opened in the United States.

The idea behind The 1905 is to provide a culturally inclusive venue so the community can connect through experience, atmosphere, food, and drink. This is not only significant because of our food fare, but because it’s symbolic of the melding of culture -- what was once an Italian import is now a quintessential part of the American experience. As such, The 1905 celebrates the Portland community as a whole and wants to maintain a safe and inclusive environment for all.

A Community Tribute to a Jazz Master!
Join us at The 1905 on August 14th for a very special evening honoring bassist, composer, educator, and jazz icon Chuck Israels on the occasion of his 90th birthday.

For more than seven decades, Chuck has been a vital force in jazz, performing and recording alongside some of the greatest artists in the music's history, including Bill Evans, John Coltrane, Herbie Hancock, Billie Holiday, and countless others. Beyond his remarkable accomplishments on stage and in the studio, Chuck has enriched generations of musicians through his mentorship, generosity, and unwavering dedication to the art form.

This celebration is our opportunity to recognize not only an extraordinary career, but also a beloved member of Portland's jazz community whose impact continues to be felt far beyond the bandstand.

The evening will feature live performances by friends, colleagues, and admirers, along with special surprises throughout the night—including video greetings and tributes from former bandmates, celebrated jazz artists, and friends from across the world who wish to share their appreciation for Chuck and his enduring legacy.

Whether you've known Chuck personally, studied his music, heard him perform, or simply want to celebrate one of jazz's living treasures, we invite you to be part of this unforgettable gathering.

Come help us honor a remarkable life in music and show Chuck just how much he means to our community.
