Students, Community Join For Jazz Concert

SALISBURY, MD---The Salisbury University Jazz Ensemble performs at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, May 13, in the Fulton Hall Theatre.

Directed by Dr. Jerry Tabor of SU’s Department of Music, the ensemble is comprised of SU students, as well as community musicians. The concert features both traditional and contemporary jazz, blues and Latin music, including pieces originally performed by such artists as Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers, Superblue and T.S. Monk.

In addition to unique arrangements involving the entire band - including one based on a well-known children’s song – the concert includes small combos, jazz guitar solos and duets and classic ballads sung by a special guest vocalist.

The ensemble is a revitalized organization with a unique instrumentation and philosophical vision. All musicians interested in playing jazz are encouraged to contact Tabor to find out how they can contribute to the program.
