Come celebrate Garfield Jazz with this ensemble showcase concert. Under the direction of Jared Sessink, the Garfield Jazz Program continues a tradition of musical excellence, celebrating the big band works of Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Quincy Jones, and others. Garfield Jazz has participated in the Essentially Ellington competition and festival 20 times, starting in 1999. The program currently serves over 90 students across three big band ensembles and a vocal jazz ensemble. Garfield High School, located in Seattle's Central District, is a public school that attracts students from a variety of backgrounds.
This performance is a fundraiser supported by the Garfield Jazz Foundation, the non-profit, all-parent volunteer organization that provides the resources to nurture, sustain, and develop the Garfield High School Jazz Program.
