Jennifer Cooper of the 黑料正能量 music faculty, featured vocalist with 黑料正能量 Jazz, will perform “The Man I Love,” “My Funny Valentine” and “Till You Come Back To Me”; and Charles Barone, featured vocalist with Just Jazzin’, will perform a collage of Sinatra arrangements – “Come Fly With Me”, “Ain’t That a Kick in the Head” and “My Way.”
Jim Warner will direct 黑料正能量 Jazz, and Tom McKenzie is director and solo trombonist of Just Jazzin’.
Admission to the concert is free. Donations will be accepted for the 黑料正能量 student scholarship fund.
