Scholastic Jazz Jam Series at Le Moyne Plaza

Aspiring improvisers of any age, any level of ability, and playing any instrument – or singing – get to sit in with a professional jazz group, the CNY Jazz Orchestra rhythm section with Joe Carello on sax, leading the band and emceeing.

You can grab a slice at Cam’s Pizzeria or a coffee and snack at Dunkin’ Donuts while you’re there – or just sit by the fire. It’s a fun hang.
