Jazz Celebration
This annual celebration of all things jazz features the very best Jacobs Jazz Studies students and faculty have to offer, while also welcoming renowned guests.
This year, the hall will be alive with the sound of film music, with coming attraction Dave Stryker performing a cinematic panorama of evergreen themes penned anew by jazz professor Brent Wallarab. From Connery to Cusack and Ellington to Mancini, movie buffs and audiophiles alike will revel in this score of chart toppers and cult favorites appearing on the guitarist's latest release, Stryker with Strings Goes to the Movies.
Wallarab will take the podium before a 30-piece studio orchestra, enveloping Stryker in lush Hollywood vibes and making way for chance cameos by other familiar artists.
