Hi Barbara,

Jazz Knights free concert sounds really good to me. We love jazz. My cousin plays sak in a Jazz band and seeing her band play in person is awesome. Enjoy the concert if you get to go.

Barbara, I missed the days when my two boys were in school and I would go to the schools concerts.  I was always amazed at how good the quality of music was.  I am sure that this Jazz Knight will be excellent.

Barbara, the Jazz Nights Free Concert is something my dad would have loved. He was a jazz musician and loved all things jazz!

Bob -- I am sure they are precision musicians since they are under direction of West Point.

George -- I heard an Army band a long time ago and they were excellent. These musicians are graduates of some really high end music schools.

Jane -- Fun AND Free.... can't beat that combo.

Sharon -- There are a lot of jazz lovers -- I have a few in my family as well.

Kwee -- We have jazz bands playing in local summer concerts as well.  They always draw quite a crowd.

Barbara, jazz bands are one of my favorites and I'm glad you chose the Saxophone for your images... I just love hearing it played.  Hope you will be able to attend this free jazz concert in Shelton!
