You read it right, there’s a last minute pop up jam tomorrow! Hosted by yours truly, this jam will be part of Performance and Jazz Studies Day. Come join us and connect with prospective students!

Join us this Wednesday for a recital by the established composer Paul Dietrich!

We hope to see you there!
