NMU Jazz Concert Feb. 11

Northern Michigan University's Music Department will host a free jazz concert at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 11, in Reynolds Recital Hall. The event will feature the NMU Jazz Band, composed of nearly 20 players representing various academic majors and directed by Mark Flaherty, along with two smaller ensembles coached by Patrick Booth.

"We'll be featuring a variety of music, from straight-ahead swing to more modern compositions," Flaherty said. "The audience will have a chance to hear some great music by composers such as Thelonious Monk, Sonny Rollins, Gordon Goodwin, Megan Vinther and many others. Those who attend can look forward to a great evening of live music performed by talented student musicians."
