OOBHS Jazz in Portland!

The OOBHS Jazz Ensemble will be featured as guest performers with the Portland Jazz Orchestra on February 27, 2020, at One Longfellow Square in Portland. The show begins at 8 PM; advance tickets are $5 on the One Longfellow website; at the door, they are $10 for adults, $5 for students. This is a great chance for our students to perform with a pro band in a live night club setting. The Portland Jazz Orchestra has played once a month at One Longfellow for the last 14 years. If you are into jazz I highly recommend this as a fun night out and a chance to see our students strut their stuff. Email Mr. Manduca mmanduca@rsu23.org  if you want more information!
