This Weekend

Thursday, March 1, 2007

KU is all jazzed up over the coinciding anniversaries of the start of its jazz program 35 years ago and its 30th annual jazz festival, and you should be too.

Head to the Lied Center Saturday night to hear KU’s top vocal jazz, big band and jazz combos perform with two alumni. The first guest, Gary Foster, played at the Academy Awards last Sunday night and the second, Earle Dumler, toured with Frank Zappa in the 70s. Both musicians have lent their talents to countless film scores, says Dan Gailey, KU jazz studies director. The show starts at 7:30 p.m. both Friday, March 2, and Saturday, March 3, at the Lied Center. Tickets are $10 for students.
