The JAZZ Club experience is not one that many kids get to learn about. I want my students to find out how awesome playing in a JAZZ Club might be.

Professional jazz musicians interacting with 6th grade through 12th grade musicians. These students will have the opportunity to work with and perform with professional musicians in a Jazz Night Club setting ala candlelight, darkened room, sound equipment and fabulous soloists with whom they share the stage. Without stand lights with which to see the music this experience cannot be the TOTAL experience.

We are in need of 10 more stand lights so that the musicians will be able to see their music while performing in a darkened room with candlelight. We currently have only 8 stand lights.

Your help will provide these students what can only be described as a ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME experience. You can make a difference.
