Jazz group to host festival

The WPI Jazz Group will host the Jazz Choir / Jazz Combo Festival of the International Association of Jazz Educators (IAJE) on Wednesday, March 20, beginning at 3pm. This year's festival competition will feature performances by musicians from 14 high schools throughout Massachusetts - from Cape Cod to the western part of the state. There is a small admission charge. Tickets are available at the door.

Three judges, all internationally acclaimed jazz performers and educators, will critique each group as it performs. Choirs will perform in Alden Memorial; combos will make music in the Spaulding Recital Hall on Alden's lower level.

"The WPI Music Division is proud to have been chosen once again to host the IAJE Festival," says Richard Falco, director of jazz studies. "We welcome the opportunity to have so many young, talented musicians visit our outstanding music facility." For more information, call Falco at ext. 5794.
