Jazz Festival


Down St. Thomas Way, Two for the Road, and I Sing You Sing were our three charts for the Minnesota ACDA Star of the North vocal jazz festival. I am very proud of the SM Blues performance. The dedication and hard work that our students put in paid off. The adjudications were extremely educational and very worthwhile. I think we'll bring home a number of "games" that will help us swing the pendulum and get to where we need to be. We had 2 master classes and a performance by 2 college groups and the wonderful McNally Smith faculty. They were so enjoyable to see and hear. The facilities and faculty are top notch. Tonight we deserved a break and enjoyed the night off. It will be refreshing to get back with our new knowledge. It seems as though everyone has enjoyed the experience. We'll be home tomorrow evening - I get to take the students to St. Paul's Cathedral. We'll be attending 10 am mass. Hope you enjoy the photo.
