In 2019 I taught three classes at OLLI (the adult education program) at CSUMB: Jazz and the Brandenburg Concertos; Jazz and Jazz Stories (a run-up to the CSUMB/MJF Artist-in-Residence Concert and the Next Generation Jazz Festival); and, Monterey Jazz Festival Prep and Pizza. I launched a website to provide background information and additional resources for the students. Links below . . .
