[JPL] WMUA Jazz Report for 9/03/07 - WMUA Amherst, MA

[ken-irwin at comcast.net]

Folks:

Here is the latest from WMUA.  As another new school year begins I hope that you are all well and have had a relaxing summer.  I will be away from WMUA until Sept. 15 and the next add date will be 9/17.  We are all looking forward to our "Solos & Duos Concert Series" at UMass this fall http://www.umass.edu/fac/calendar/magictriangle/allEvent.html which will feature Warren Smith, the Roswell Rudd/Mark Dresser duo, and the Fred Anderson/Chad Taylo duo.  A great way to start the acdemic year.

Best,
Ken
