The ÃØÉ«´«Ã½ College community is warmly invited to ÃØÉ«´«Ã½'s Night of Jazz, which will take place on Thursday, 24 March at the Manningham Hotel in Bulleen.
A traditional highlight of the music calendar, ÃØÉ«´«Ã½'s Night of Jazz celebrates our jazz program by featuring our bands and soloists alongside a professional 'house band' and an exciting guest artist. The event also provides important preparation for upcoming performances at the All-State Jazz Championships. The audience will enjoy table seating and light supper in the style of a jazz club, with drinks available at bar prices.
In 2022, we are very excited to welcome Ross Irwin as our special guest artist. Ross is the director of the All-State Jazz Festival, and is one of Australia's most exciting music identities. As a trumpeter, multi instrumentalist, band leader and composer/arranger, he has toured extensively with The Cat Empire, The Bamboos, and performed with countless Australian and international artists including Paul Kelly, Kate Ceberano, Harry Connick Jr and Kurt Elling, to name but a few. In preparation for ÃØÉ«´«Ã½'s Night of Jazz, Ross will work with our jazz bands and soloists.
