Join us for this annual festival where high school jazz bands and combos perform for written comments from both WMU jazz faculty members and a guest artist! This year we have saxophonist, David Binney.
Acclaimed as a considerable and highly individual compositional talent, saxophonist David Binney is one of the most prolific jazz musicians on the scene today. Winning praise from critics and colleagues alike, David was singled out by JazzTimes as one of a handful of "players who have created an alternative jazz scene... all of whom are playing adventurous, original music."
