The ensemble will also showcase our award-winning combos in performance on music by jazz icons Thelonious Monk, Ant?nio Carlos Jobim, Billy Strayhorn , Duke Ellington , Charlie Parker, "Dizzy" Gillespie, Luiz Bonf? , and Clifford Brown. The concert will conclude with guest artist Tom Peron featured on ?Bye Bye Blackbird? (in the style made famous by Miles Davis) and ?Perdido?, as made famous by Duke Ellington ?s band. Teacher and performer Tom Peron has a very successful career, performing with the great pianist Jessica Williams in the 1980?s before forming another successful group with San Francisco drummer Bud Spangler. Since the early 1980?s, Tom Peron and his groups have performed for audiences at the Monterey Jazz Festival, KRML's Jazz Store in Carmel, Yoshi's, Pearl's, Heart & Soul, and the Museum of Modern Art, all in San Francisco. In addition to his busy performance schedule, Tom Peron also teaches at Watermelon Music in Davis and at the University of the Pacific. Phil Elwood, music critic for the *San Francisco Examiner*, has written, "As for trumpeter/composer Peron, one is encouraged to say, 'just listen,' and move on - astonished at his playing, versatility, imagination and technical facility. Master of his horn, with 'good ears,' as Lester Young would have said, Peron has created his own style, his own sound, out of jazz roots. Very few trumpeters out there are Peron's equal, let alone his better," -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Reply directly to him at dtmoore2015 at gmail.com ------------------------ Hi Everyone: Thanks to everyone who has signed up to transport students and chaperones to and from the airport. We are hoping to fill up the cars so as to minimize the number of drivers needed. Drivers, since you have entered your name as a driver, please work with your student to identify other students/chaperones that you can transport, and enter their names in your carpool row in the sign up sheet. In a week or so, we will start trying to fill in any empty spots in the carpool vehicles and make sure that all students and chaperones have transportation. Also, please remember that we need to organize the carpools both to the airport on 5/18/17 and back from the airport on 5/23/17. Each group and each day is a separate tab on the spreadsheet. Also, if you have not submitted a DJUSD Driver Form, please do as soon as possible. A link to the form is provided below. http://dshs.djusd.net/file/1368364917977/1365835248680/7490382932957744201.pdf Please email any questions.
