CAP ALL-STAR Jazz Ensemble
Takes the Jazz at Lincoln Center Stage
Brings Home Four Awards!

The Community Arts Program (CAP) ALL-STAR Jazz Ensemble was one of 15 finalist bands chosen—from nearly 100 applicants from across the country and Canada—to take part in the prestigious 2013 Essentially Ellington High School Jazz Band Competition & Festival. The three-day festival began on Friday, May 10, with the finalist bands’ arrival at Jazz at Lincoln Center’s home, Frederick P. Rose Hall. The students made their way to Rose Theater through a congratulatory “cheer tunnel” of staff members, musicians and press. A One on One with Wynton Marsalis was followed by section workshops, rehearsals, a banquet dinner and jam sessions with members of the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra (JALCO).

Saturday, May 11, began with a JALCO open rehearsal, followed by Competition Part I. Competition Part II included the CAP ALL-STAR Jazz Ensemble performance on Sunday morning, Competition Part III followed on Sunday afternoon. On Sunday evening in Rose Theater, the Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra performed music of Duke Ellington and Gerald Wilson. The night culminated with a grand awards ceremony honoring outstanding soloists, sections and performances. Read more…
