Jazz combos to perform May 8 at Acoustic Café

Two student jazz workshop combos, directed by Dr. John Paulson and Eric Heukeshoven of the Music Department, will present a free concert Sunday, May 8, from 2 to 4 p.m. at the Acoustic Café, 77 Lafayette St. This event will feature student musicians who have been playing together all semester, and it will serve as their “final exam.”

They’ll be playing well-known jazz standards by composers like Herbie Hancock, Wayne Shorter, Miles Davis and Duke Ellington.
