THE NEXT JAZZ GENERATION

Over the weekend, Benedetto Prez/CEO Howard Paul had an opportunity to meet with the talented kids of the Jazz Standard Youth Orchestra in New York. The Jazz Standard Youth Orchestra is a performance driven program that gives talented and dedicated young jazz musicians the opportunity to perform regularly in one of New York City’s leading jazz clubs. This Sunday’s performance was at The Jazz Standard with Howard performing as their guest artist. The visiting guests give a workshop to the band members in addition to providing the experience of playing with a top musician.

Special thanks to director and jazz guitarist extraordinaire (and Benedetto Player) David O’Rourke!
