CHRISTOPHER DOANE, Dean, School of Music On behalf of the School of Music it is my pleasure to welcome you to the events of the UofL School of Music’s 2017 Jazz Fest. The School of Music recognizes all the faculty members of the Jamey Aebersold Jazz Studies Program, including Ansyn Banks, Chris Fitzgerald, Mike Hyman, Jerry Tolson, Mike Tracy, Craig Wagner, and Gabe Evens, for their work in organizing and presenting this year’s terrific set of events and concerts for jazz fans throughout the region. Additionally, I would like to also acknowledge the important support for this event from our staff of Graduate Assistants and all the students in Jazz Studies program. The 2017 Jazz Fest, now in its 25th year at UofL, provides a combination of concerts and master classes featuring established and emerging jazz artists to provide opportunities for audiences to experience the past, present, and future of jazz in the United States and around the world. The school is especially pleased to welcome to the University of Louisville the musicians of our International combos who will perform during the opening concert and our special guest artists, trombonist Wycliffe Gordon, and the Metta Quintet, including Greg Ward, alto saxophonist, Wayne Escoffery, tenor saxophone, Glenn Zaleski, pianist, Rashaan Carter, bassist, and drummer Hans Schuman. Additionally, we thank our panel of adjudicators and clinicians, who provide great service to the School of Music and Jazz Fest through their work with our students and the visiting high school jazz bands that make up such an important part of this event. These important contributors include Adam Gaines, trumpet, Reso Kiknadze, saxophone, Sean Parsons, piano, and Terry O’Mahoney, drums. In addition to their work with our visiting jazz ensembles, they will be featured with UofL Jazz Ensemble II on Thursday evening. In addition to the opportunity to showcase some of the finest jazz performers and teachers working today, these events are all about providing educational opportunities for students at UofL, community members, and jazz students throughout our region. So, to all who participate in this critically important part of the festival, please accept this acknowledgment and our thanks. The School of Music and Jazz Studies at UofL is proud to present Jazz Fest as part of the university’s observance of African American History Month and a major artistic event in celebration of the unique contribution of jazz to our musical culture. 2 The Jamey Aebersold Jazz Studies Program: Serious about America’s music - JAZZ!

  • 2021 Program
    This organization is funded in part by the National Endowment for the Arts and the SC Arts Commission. Thirteen Years of Joye in Aiken In this year of change, when it has sometimes seemed as if nothing might ever be normal again, one thing that has not changed is the importance of the arts in our lives. Especially where sources of hope and inspiration are few, the arts retain their power to energize and refresh us. And so it is with even greater pleasure than usual that we welcome you (digitally, to be sure) to the 13th Annual Joye in Aiken Festival and Outreach Program. Though COVID-19 has forced us to rethink timeframes, formats and venues in the interest of ensuring the safety of our community and our artists, we have embraced those challenges as opportunities. If a single Festival week presented dangers, could we spread the events out to allow for responses to changing conditions? If it wasn’t possible to hold an event indoors, could we hold it outdoors? With those questions and a thousand others answered, we are proud to present to you a Festival that is necessarily different in many respects, but that is no less exciting. And because it’s so central to our mission, we’re especially proud to introduce to you an important new dimension of our Outreach Program. With COVID making it impossible for us to present our usual Kidz Bop and Young People’s Concerts, we turned to our nationally-known artists for help. And their solution was perfect: two engaging series of instructional videos designed specifically for the children of Aiken County by these world-class musicians.
