JAZZ BANDS GREET MAYNARD FERGUSON Klamath County was treated to a special performance this year thanks to the hard work of Charles Moresi and his jazz bands. Famed trumpeter and band leader May- nard Ferguson came to town on April 6. He and his band worked with the Mazama Varsity Jazz band before performing in an evening concert at Mills. Both JV and Varsity bands practiced early in the morning (7:15-8:05) with some evening re- hearsals also. Admittance into the elite groups was by audition only. In April the Varsity Jazz Band won the Eagle Point Jazz Festival for their category and was awarded Outstanding Ensemble plaques. They were also invited to perform in the evening concert with the Mt. Hood Jazz Lab Band. This year s winner of the presti- gious Louis Armstrong Jazz award was Jack Heaton for outstanding participation as a jazz band mem- ber.
