By Nick Westendorf STAFF WRITER
Hundreds of students, parents and faculty came together for the opening concert of the 44th annu al jazz festival featuring award-winning saxophon ist Dick de Graaf. Playing along side de Graaf was the EIU Jazz Ensemble, directed by Sam Fagaly. Also playing during the concert was pianist Simon Rowe, a member of the faculty. Rowe presented a short introduction to de Graaf and explained how the two had played together in St. Louis, which led to de Graaf coming to Eastern for the Festival. Among the songs that filled the air during the evening was a selection by de Graaf, "Doubtful Sound," which is from his latest album. The album was available to be purchased just outside the ball room. After the concert, those who came had an oppor tunity to mix and mingle with the ensemble and de Graaf at the Java B & B on the first floor of the Martin Luther King Jr. University Union. Eastern's jazz program is "amazing for such a small school," said Judy Cline, who was among the many who came to the concert. Melanie Cline, daughter of Judy Cline and a member of another Jazz ensemble, said the concert was awesome. The Festival continued on Saturday, during which many local high school bands came for competitions, clinics hosted by de Graaf, another COLIN MCAULIFFE/ PHOTO EDITOR concert and an award ceremony, among other Led by Sam Fagaly, the jazz ensemble plays "Blue Skies" by Irving Berlin, Friday evening in the Grand Ballroom of the Martin Luther events.
