A little bit of jazz...

A little bit of jazz can go a long way. Last night I went to a concert at the music conservatory. It doubles as a school and a stage, like stepping into the 1950's. The concert was beautiful and inspiring. It was a bass/guitar/xylophone trio playing Charlie Parker and improv. Beautiful. I love the xylo notes, so sweet.

This is the tail end of jazz festival which ended last week. Rik Mol from Holland was by far my afavorite performance of the season. Tomorrow is the final coffee house show featuring a Brazilian jazz group. I love Brazilian jazz. This month there is a lot going on, salsa festival, international film festival, and arte en la calle, a huge artist celebration where they host an open house in San Antonio and you can shop for crafts. Looking forward to it.
