NORTH CENTRAL COLLEGE JAZZ FACULTY MEMBERS TO PLAY KENNEDY CENTER HONORS
On Sunday, December 7, 2008 jazz trombone instructor T.S. Galloway and jazz trumpet instructor Doug Scharf will travel to Washington, D.C. as members of the Chicago Jazz Orchestra to play for the 31st annual Kennedy Center Honors gala dinner. This year's honorees include Morgan Freeman, George Jones, Barbra Streisand, Twyla Tharp, Pete Townshend and Roger Daltrey of the Who. President and Mrs. George Bush will receive the honorees and members of the Artists Committee who nominated them, along with the Kennedy Center Board of Trustees, at the White House prior to the gala performance. The Honors Gala concludes with a supper dance in the Grand Foyer, for which the Chicago Jazz Orchestra will provide the music.
In addition to teaching applied jazz trombone at North Central, Mr. Galloway directs the NCC Big Band and the newly-formed NCC New Orleans Brass Band. Mr. Scharf teaches applied jazz trumpet and leads one of the NCC jazz combos.
