MCC 43rd Annual Jazz Festival


7:30 p.m., Wednesday, May 9, 2012
Brighton Campus, Building 4 Theatre

Don't wait until June’s Rochester International Jazz Festival. Come celebrate with the MCC Jazz Ensemble (big band) and the MCC Small Group Jazz Ensemble both directed by Assistant Professor John Nyerges. Eastman School Faculty Members Clay Jenkins, Rich Thompson and Jeff Campbell will play with the John Nyerges Quartet. In addition, the festival features special guest Wycliffe Gordon. Yes, I said Wycliffe Gordon, one of the top trombonists of his generation. Don't take my word for it: Google him. Google John Nyerges, too. They're not only going to BE in the same room, they're going to be PLAYING in the same room. Come. It's good and it's free. Put it on your calendar now so you don’t forget: Wednesday, May 9th. 7:30 p.m. MCC’s 43rd Annual Jazz Festival.
