Foundry Hall sponsored the workshops and performance project with professional musician, Derek Brown. The middle school and high school band students spent a day learning from Derek in their classrooms and then the High School Jazz Ensemble had two rehearsals with him in preparation for their free community performance at Listiak Auditorium. Foundry Hall helped invite the community to the well-received performance.
Derek signed autographs, chatted with audience members and students and helped encourage donations for the band’s new Tri-M honors society.
