The All-American Jazz Collective and the FTCC Ensemble will perform a concert on March 13 at FTCC’s Cumberland Hall Auditorium showcasing some of the great jazz standards of the 20th Century alongside some more contemporary R&B classics.
The performance is free and open to the public.
The All-American Jazz Collective is a jazz group founded in Fayetteville, NC, with a passion for sharing the American art of jazz.
This event is part of the FTCC Guest Artist Concert Series, a project made possible through the support of FTCC Foundation, the Arts Council of Fayetteville-Cumberland County, North Carolina Arts Council, and in part by contributions from the City of Fayetteville, Cumberland County, and other community partners.
In addition to the concert, All-American Jazz Collective member Dr. Daniel Pappas will be visiting multiple classes at FTCC to perform some of his original compositions and demonstrate how he uses generative AI to created new musical works.
To conclude the 2024-25 Guest Artist Concert season, the FTCC Chorus and Jack Britt and Gray’s Creek high school choral programs will collaborate April 23 in a concert titled “The Road.” This concert will feature a small string orchestra from the Fayetteville Symphony Orchestra, and include a performance of Ola Gjeilo’s new work “The Road”, in addition to other appropriately themed choral works.
