An amazing weekend musically speaking, for Jackson. On Friday night the Sheila Landis Quartet performed some elegant Jazz at the Daryl's Downtown to a capacity crowd. Presented by the Jackson Symphony Guild was a very successful fundraiser. Kudos to all Guild members who played a role in making the evening such a success.
Then on Saturday at Orchestra Hall David Schultz and 15 of his colleagues from MSU presented a challenging program, Memories of the Past, Visions of the Future. The performers pulled of very polished performances of challenging literature. Stravinsky's Octet for Wind Instruments and Schoenberg's pre-serial Verklerte Nacht were both exceptional in their execution and expression. Truly amazing.
