2009 Jazz Masters Concert

sara, josh, ryanWe had a delightful evening of some of the finest jazz you'll ever hear. The clear, pure voice of Gazarek accompanied by Josh Nelson on piano, Zach Harmon on drums, and Ryan McGillicuddy on bass was a treat to all who attended the 2009 GLT Jazz Masters concert.

They shared talents reaching far beyond their 20-something years (although Josh did note that he celebrated his 30th birthday a couple months ago) and filled the acoustically perfect CPA Concert Hall with beautifully arranged, heartfelt jazz ballads and swing numbers. Sara brough us fresh new takes on traditional jazz and pop tunes that left us breathless.

Truly a jazz master.

Jazz Master Masterclass

breitweiser with bandOne of our favorite aspects of the annual GLT Jazz Masters concert is the educational component that takes place in the afternoon prior to the concert. Sara and band shared their expertise with ISU students, community musicians, and families. Singers joined her on stage and worked with the band on a song of their choice and Bruce Breitweiser (concert sponsor) added his soulful saxophone on a couple of numbers. It was a memorable experience for all.
