Middleton Jazz at Oakwood Village

Middleton Jazz was grateful for the opportunity to play in Oakwood Village’s lovely auditorium for Oakwood residents, the PLATO Jazz class, and members of the public. We played a variety of traditional jazz pieces to illustrate the early development of jazz. The audience was terrific and we all had a great time. Attached is a short video of Muskrat Ramble from that performance.
