We had so much fun sharing our music with you tonight. Thanks to all of you for your support of live music in general and Keene Jazz Orchestra in particular. It's such a thrill to be able to present such a repertoire of jazz standards. We thoroughly enjoyed our soloists, Mike Turk and Bella Holtz, and we're glad you got to hear their music.
We'll be having a dance in December so watch for announcements.
Peace to all of you!
