Members of the DGS Jazz Lab Band and Jazz Ensemble performed last night at Jilly's Restaurant in Naperville. Featured with the Jazz Lab Band was Mr. Ted Hogarth, one of the finest woodwind players/baritone saxophonists in the Chicagoland area. Each group played a 30 minute set prior to the regular performance of the Pete Ellman Big Band. Special shout out to our student teacher from the U of I, Mr. Scott Oliver, for conducting The Woogie with Jazz Lab Band.Our gratitude to Jilly's Restaurant and to Pete Ellman and the Pete Ellman Big Band for providing the opportunity for such a professionally relevant performance experience for our DGS jazz musicians!!!
