Jazz Nite 09

Come one, come all to this year's edition of Jazz Nite, on Wednesday, April 29, at 7:30 in the Deerfield High School auditorium! The Jazz Band will perform the world premiere of Geoff Shell's composition "Twilight," as well as three jazz classics: "Red Clay" by Freddie Hubbard, "God Bless the Child" by Billie Holiday, and "Moanin'" by Charles Mingus (not to be confused with the Bobby Timmons tune of the same name). In addition, the Monday and Tuesday Afternoon Jazz groups will each play a set. The ever-popular Choraliers and various vocal soloists will be singing some favorite numbers from the Great American Songbook of the 1930s and '40s, and the Jazz Band and Choraliers will open and close the show together in spectacular fashion. We hope to have a big crowd--it's a great concert paper opportunity for all you sophomores and juniors!
