ARMCHAIR TRAVEL SERIES CLOSER TO HOME: A DISCUSSION OF JAZZ VIA ZOOM, HOSTED BY ERCV’S ROGER GLASS

• Join us for a lively ZOOM discussion of the past, present and future of jazz music. Sometimes referred to as America’s classical music, jazz has spread across the globe thanks to ambassadors like Miles Davis, Dave Brubeck, Ella Fitzgerald, Duke Ellington, and others. The contemporary giants of the music, including Wynton Marsalis, Dee Dee Bridgewater and Christian McBride, have carried on that tradition.
• Our special guest on March 25^th will be jazz saxophonist Davey Yarborough. In addition to serving as the director of the jazz studies program at Duke Ellington School of the Arts for more than 40 years, Yarborough is the co-founder of the Washington Jazz Arts Institute, a non-profit that exposes young people to jazz and trains them for careers in music.
