The Dick Forman Jazz Group regularly delights Center for the Arts audiences with its sparkling, straight-ahead mainstream jazz. Each of the band's previous appearances has celebrated the music that's been called America's national treasure. Some of the region's top players offer a program of great jazz—from ballads to blues to bebop—sure to warm up a winter evening.
The band features Don Stearns, saxophone; Dick Forman, piano; Jim Daggs, bass; and Steve Wienert, drums. Once again, for this performance, guitarist Paul Asbell joins the group. Both Asbell and Forman are members of the College's applied music faculty. The concert, on Saturday, February 12 at 8:00 p.m. in the Concert Hall, is free and open to the public.
