Long Friends Back in Sun Prairie

10/26/2021

Comments

 
Ron Carter made is annual trip to Sun Prairie and mentored students in the Sun Prairie Jazz Program.  Spending time with the CHUMS Jazz Band, as well as Sun Prairie Jazz I and II and working on the fundamentals of Swing.  Professor Carter challenge students to play more emotionally and dig deeper and deeper into the rich history and tradition of this music.

Students responded really well to his passion and saw immediate growth in their playing.  We are fortunate to have Ron stop out and continue to work with our groups on a yearly basis.  His long-standing friendship with the Sun Prairie Jazz ​Program continues to help our students grow.
