Sacramento State Vocal Jazz Concert Friday May 14th

Are you still wanting more fantastic jazz music now that our season has ended? Attend the final Sacramento State vocal jazz concert tomorrow, Friday, May 14th, at 7:00 pm in Capistrano Hall at the college. You will hear two amazing vocal groups (including some former Folsom High students!) led by Kerry Marsh and assisted by Julia Dollison, and our Folsom High School Jazz Choir A will perform as well.

Come support this successful college program that is in danger of being cut next year and cheer them on!

Alumni Corner

Kelsey Iverson is a 2006 Folsom High music graduate who played trombone in Jazz Band I and sang with the Jazz Choir. Kelsey went on to play the trombone with the Sacramento State University Jazz Band A, the Sac State Orchestra, and several chamber groups. She graduated in 2010 with a Bachelor's Degree in Music Trombone Performance.

Kelsey is currently spending 3 months living in Prague and traveling throughout Europe. Kelsey said, "I am reminded of the Folsom Jazz Eurotrips in 2002 and 2006 almost every day here!" When she returns to the U.S., she plans to attend grad school, possibly at CU Boulder in Colorado. But that decision won't be made until she hears back from all of her applications. We wish you much good luck, Kelsey, from your Folsom High music supporters!

If you are in contact with former music students or are the parent of an alumnus, please submit an update to publicity@folsommusic.org and we'll post the news here. Photos are welcome too!
