“Jazz4Justice has brought together lawyers and musicians for over 20 years, raising funds to provide free legal support, and introducing young musicians to jazz.

More info about Jazz4Justice and tickets for the upcoming Gala at www.jazz4justice.com
With Ellington on our minds we couldn't resist playing Duke tunes in many guises, ranging from the ska beat sounds of Skavoovie & The Epitones, through vocalist Kristin Callahan, and the sublime interpretations of Ella Fitzgerald & Joe Pass. Add in a touch of music from the George Mason Jazz, and Vocal ensembles, plus a track by Mason steel-pan professor Victor Provost; top it off with a touch of reggae trombone by Rico, and it's a wrap!”
