A plug for what promises to be roaring evening of contemporary big-band jazz this Friday, Jan 31st, 8PM at the MacAnnich Arts Center, College of DuPage, Fawell Blvd. (22nd St.) & Lambert Rd., Glen Ellyn, IL. The Arts Center Jazz Orchestra is a resident professional ensemble comprised of the Chicago area's top jazz and studio musicians. For this concert we welcome Pianist/Arranger Marshall Vente (who studied with Gil Evans and Ronnie Mathews) and Coltrane disciple Billy Harper in a largely original program of Marshall's arrangements written specifically for this performance. Two of Gil Evans works will also be performed. Of particular interest to the Tuba community is that the Tuba in all its glory will be an intrinsic part of the ensemble (something quite unusual around these parts) with much challenging and interesting music to play. Tickets are $18., $15. for students/seniors. For more info call 630.942.4000 or by visiting www.cod.edu/ArtsCtr

Hope to see some of you there.
