  • Download 2017 Jazz Festival Program
    February 23-25, 2017 Grounded in Tradition. Breaking New Ground. www.uidaho.edu/jazzfest hampjazz ii University of Idaho GENERAL INFORMATION GENERAL Welcome TO THE FESTIVAL AT THE UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO! elcome to 50 years of Vandal tradition – a half century of excellence at the Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival. This signature Vandal event is where key aspects of our mission – teaching, learning and exploration, and community engagement – truly take Wcenter stage. As we gather for a celebration of our festival’s history and its bright future, effectively captured in the “Grounded in Tradition. Breaking New Ground.” theme, we celebrate our students, our teachers both from UI and visiting, and our performers. Our 50th anniversary sees the festival with some changes, intended to refocus and reenergize this great event. For 2017 the Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival returned to our Lionel Hampton School of Music within the College of Letters, Arts and Social Sciences. I thank our School of Music for the way they’ve seamlessly handled this transition intended to improve the overall event experience for students, faculty and attendees. Their behind-the-scenes management is something many attendees may not notice, but will benefit from through a memorable experience. This year we have three days and nights of exciting music education and concerts, with all of it taking place right on campus. Another noticeable change is a shift in the student experience: The festival now offers a competitive track option for student performers. Adjudicators will hand-select soloists and combos from our K-12 participant ranks to perform on the main stage at each evening’s concert, as they did when Lionel performed here.

  • For Immediate Release Rico Introduces Reserve
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE RICO INTRODUCES RESERVE CLASSIC ALTO SAXOPHONE REEDS The NAMM Show, Anaheim, CA, January 13-16, 2011 (Booth #4834) – Rico is excited to announce that Reserve Classic Alto Saxophone reeds have been added to its line of Reserve Classic reeds. The Reserve Classic Alto Saxophone reeds are made from lower-internode cane which produces the most consistent tone of any reed currently on the market. The new Reserve Classic reeds feature a thicker blank that allows for more resonation as well as a profile that provides more flexibility than standard alto saxophone reeds. Reserve Classic Alto Saxophone reeds are available in strengths of 2.0 to 4.5. The Reserve Classic line also offers 3.0+ strength, making Reserve Classic the first line of reeds to offer this strength option for the alto saxophone. Buzz about the new Reserve Classic reeds for Alto Saxophone is already stirring from top artists: “Whether performing traditional saxophone quartet music or cutting-edge contemporary repertoire, Rico Reserve reeds provide us with exceptional reliability, response, and resonance,” enthuses Jeffrey J. Loeffert of the h2 Quartet. “The Reserve Classic Alto Saxophone reeds allow us to perform broad dynamic ranges, project in expressive passages, and facilitate our ability to blend.” “Rico’s new line of classical reeds gives the performer total confidence on stage,” says Dave Camwell, Assistant Professor of Saxophone and Jazz Studies at Simpson College. “The response, warmth of sound, or clarity of tone is simply sensational. I find the new Reserve Classic reeds to be in a league of their own.” “The Reserve Classic Alto Saxophone reeds were developed after receiving some great feedback from a diverse range of players,” says Rico Product Manager, Robert Polan.
