With great pleasure, we announce the 3rd year of our mandate to empower children in 'high priority' neigbourhoods of the GTA through hands-on exposure to the beauty and power of Jazz music. This year we will work in North Scarborough. We are delighted to say that our expectations have been surpassed. Our Children's Jazz Choir of 300+ voices will be augmented by representatives of previous program years from Toronto's downtown core, and North Etobicoke; a 40 voice teen choir, a big band; string section; the Toronto Jazz Chorus; Howard Rees' Trio and very special guests Dr. Barry Harris (NYC) and Charles McPherson (San Diego).

We believe that the continued success of our work is an indication of the great need for creative music programming in 'high priority' areas of the GTA.

This year our project will conclude with a concert at the George Weston Recital Hall, (Toronto Centre for the Arts) on January 28th, 2010.
