An Evening of Jazz with Digna Ojito and the James Hall Trio

Two Rollins College students, Digna Ojito and James G. Hall, will bring a repertoire of jazz classics, hallmarks of the Latin genre, and original compositions to the Timucua Art Foundation's White House on Saturday, May 23rd. Following their previous performance at the Live Oak Center in New Smyrna Beach in January, they bring several new pieces to their repertoire in Orlando, including James Hall's "Guadeloupe" - previously recorded as an instrumental on his album Out of the Galleon at the White House last year - and covers of lesser-known 20th-century jazz songs such as "Mad about the Boy" and "You Came a Long Way from St. Louis". The rhythm section will include bassist Charlie Silva, a longtime Orlando-based musician who was also on James Hall's debut trio album Hall Aboard!, and drummer Jamesly Jean-Mary, whose resume includes previous concerts at Timucua and the Flying Horse Big Band.
