This was a great event that combined two wonderful art forms - jazz music and visual arts - for a great evening of entertainment. The orchestra was amazing having only had a few days to learn such intricate pieces, and the guest musicans added a wonderful florish to some of the peices. The only thing that stopped this from being exceptional was the pacing on the art was a bit slow at some points.Written on Feb 08 2010

Visually stimulating having the art imagery engage and illustrate the jazz. A really new way for me to make the connection with the emotion of the music.Written on Feb 08 2010

The JLCO will also be joined for this performance by Nathalie Bonin on violin, Clark Gayton on tuba, and Bill Schimmel on accordion.
