Informational materials will be available along with live and recorded music examples. (Bring a brown bag lunch, if you like!)Composers and Compositions:
The Golden Age: LC Jazz Choir concert will feature jazz standards from the Big Band era along with vocal jazz compositions by Lambert, Hendricks & Ross; Manhattan Transfer; and New York Voices. Get ready to tap your toes and snap your fingers—but only on beats 2 & 4, please!
