Jazz at Fishel Park 2011




















The Jazz Ensemble from South High School in Downers Grove swung hard last night in their final public performance of the 2010-2011 school year. Opening with Rockin' in Rhythm and closing with The Git, the ensemble displayed impressive soulfulness and technical capacity. We pay special homage to our parting seniors: Elliot Bild - trumpet; Tim Neumann - trombone; Will O'Dell - baritone saxophone; Callie Sorce - tenor saxophone; Trevor Yde - drums; Peter Zlotnicki - trumpet. Your contributions to the recent performance success at DGS is remarkable - we'll miss each of you tremendously! Special "shout-out" to our colleagues at DGN for their performances, and, for hosting the event tonight while the new band shell at Fishel Park undergoes final construction.
