Maplewood Richmond Heights School District: Virtual Voices: MRH Junior Shines At JazzU

Press release from Maplewood Richmond Heights School District:

July 28, 2021

An update on the JazzU program at Jazz St. Louis, which has been virtual but hardly dormant for a year.

Andy Ament, the Director of Education for Jazz St. Louis, says, "I want to highlight what an amazing accomplishment these recordings were, as most of our groups only met in person once prior to recording. The success of these is certainly a direct product of the dedication and hard work throughout the year from both our students and teaching artists. I also want to thank all parents, guardians, friends, and family who helped support these students throughout the year, especially as they practiced, recorded, and met from home."

Enjoy this brief VIDEO of MRH junior Sadie Tanner performing "Perdido" at Jazz at the Bistro.
