Every Saturday afternoon, dedicated jazz students come to Arts Garage to play jazz and to learn how to become better jazz musicians. Oftentimes, students cross paths with artists and world-famous musicians and actors. Recently, students were fortunate to meet Ms. Avery Sommers who is Bessie Smith in the Arts Garage recent, sold-out production <a href="http://artsgarage.com/Page/MainStage" target="_blank"><i>The Devil's Music: The Life and Blues of Bessie Smith- A play with Music</i></a>.<br />
<br />
Mr. Cornelius Johnson, Jr, one of the musicians who is performing in the show, heard the students playing <i>Blue Bossa</i> and asked to jam with them. It was a wonderful surprise for students, not only to experience jazz with a professional musician, but to be able to play alongside him on the same stage that has been graced by many famous musicians. Mr. Johnson enjoyed the jam session so much, he joined in the following week and played <i>Doxy</i> with the students. <br />
<br />
Jazz is like that. It brings people together. We never know what musical opportunities await us at Arts Garage.<br />
<br />
Lucky kids!<br />

In early March, The Bridge Project performed for the Arts Garage Guild and shared about the program. One particular member of the Arts Garage Guild, Mr. Alan "Allie Abe" Albert, showed a genuine interest in the project and mission. We invited him to visit the class to see what the students were working on. <br />
<br />
Mr. Albert, guild member and professional drummer, is a passionate jazz enthusiast and really enjoyed sharing with the students. He not only sat in with them and provided great feedback and tips, but he also repaired one of the instruments!<br />
<br />
Mr. Albert is talented and was very kind and generous to spend time with our students, sharing resources and information about being a great jazz musician.<br />
<br />
Times like these are priceless and the students really appreciated the visit. We hope Mr. Albert will return to jam with us again soon!<br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The
Bridge Project was developed in partnership with Swing & Jazz Preservation
Society, Arts Garage, and Palm Beach Band Camps. These groups share a similar
mission: To preserve jazz, our American treasure. These young musicians wish to
share their love of jazz with the community and cultivate
enthusiasm for the art form across generations. Currently, the Bridge Project eight band members range from ages 13- 17 and
perform jazz standards: Anna, vocals;
Mary, trumpet; Jackie, saxophone; Marcus, trombone; Connor, guitar; Dylan, guitar; Michael. upright acoustic bass
Emily on drum set. The group performs jazz standards, swing, bossa novas and
ballads and have 1- 1 ½ hours of
repertoire.</span><br />

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 6.0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The students were
a big hit! Allegro Senior Living is a very new
establishment and the students were the first entertainment booked. The students were very well-received and have
been invited back. The director is in
support of inter-generational activities and agrees this is an excellent fit
for the band and Allegro. Most likely,
Allegro will become a regular gig for The Bridge Project.</span><o:p></o:p></div>

Upon sign
up for the second term, students were asked why they wanted to join the
group. Some of the student responses included, “I want to keep jazz alive
and enjoy playing and listening to the style….I'm used to playing in a big band
setting and want to change things up...I appreciate the opportunities provided
by this program...I love jazz! First semester was an amazing experience!” The
passion and dedication of these students is apparent.<o:p></o:p></div>
