US Jazz Band Performs for SU; 3 Students Make All-State
On November 29, the St. Andrew’s Jazz Band performed at Southwestern University, opening a concert for the university’s jazz band. Their program included “Hoe Down” by Oliver Nelson, “Speak No Evil” by Wayne Shorter, and “Upside Downside” by Mike Stern.
Also, three upper school students, Natalie Ozor ‘17, Jeff Wang ‘18, and Chris Jones ‘17, were recently selected through a statewide audition to participate in the Texas Private School Music Educators’ Association (TPSMEA) All-State Jazz Band. This is Natalie’s first year selected, Jeff’s second, and Chris’s third time to participate in a TPSMEA all-state ensemble. This is a wonderful accomplishment that will culminate with a three-day conference and concert on January 28 in Richardson, TX.
