Juilliard Jazz Orchestra Concert at Alice Tully Hall
Last week my husband and I went to the last Juilliard Jazz Orchestra concert of the year at Alice Tully Hall. We love the amazing skills and knowledge of these young musicians, and the quality of the performance is as good as any we've heard. I sketched just the 3 musicians that were directly in front of me - otherwise there were too many music stands blocking my view, and I wanted to sketch them with their instruments. Wynton Marsalis was the Conductor, although he just spoke to the audience before each half, and had the musicians introduce each piece of music and "conduct" themselves.
