Jazzical® is a celebration of creative fusion - it's the explosive union of classical composition and jazz innovation ignited with a fresh spirit all its own. Developed by creator/pianist Joel A. Martin, Jazzical captures the dynamic force of multiple cultures and influences, unleashing a kinetic energy that breaks down boundaries and yields whole new worlds of musical expression.
May 15 - May 19 Martin will be conducting workshops at Enloe High School with the jazz improv classes, the wind ensemble, concert band, choral department and recording studio programs.
