Dec. 15: Golden Oak Jazz Returns to WRHS Theater

The next “GO Jazz: Jazz in the Afternoon” will take place Saturday, Dec. 15. at the West Ranch High School Theater at 3 p.m.

“GO Jazz is a 17-18 piece ensemble that has been practicing feverishly since October,” Ron Rudzinski, principal of Golden Oak Adult School said. “They sound great and look forward to performing a broad selection of popular tunes at this concert.”

The group is made up of local professional-level adult musicians enrolled in the Hart District school’s program.

Bob Babko, recently retired and former band director at Valencia High and West Ranch High, came up with the idea of setting up a Golden Oak Adult School-sponsored jazz band. Members of the band are recruited and accepted by Babko.

Tickets are $10 for general admission ($5 for students and seniors 60+) and can be purchased by calling 259-0033 X444.

The proceeds will help GO Jazz continue to provide a quality entertainment option for our community.

Musicians interested in learning more about auditioning for the band and participating in the group can call the same phone number.
