Jazz Ensemble 2, under the direction of USF Jazz Faculty member, Ross Strauser and Graduate Assistant, Anthony Garcia. This concert will feature the music of Thelonious Sphere Monk, arranged for big band. Monk was a pianist and composer and was a key figure in making Jazz America?s only Art form invented right here in the United States. His music formed what is called Bebop, which is serious concert music, not dance music. With February being Black History Month, this concert fits that bill! Please consider making a tax-deductible donation to USF College of Design, Art & Performance. All proceeds directly support CDAP students including those who performed today.
