Juilliard jazz ensemble with Victor Goines will play at the Sheldon in March

This just in: Saxophonist Victor Goines, who heads the jazz program at the famed Juilliard music school, will bring the Juilliard Jazz Small Ensemble to the Sheldon Concert Hall for a workshop and performance on Thursday, March 30. The program will give a number of St. Louis student jazz musicians the opportunity to participate in a two-hour workshop with Goines and the Ensemble, culminating in the performance.

It's a little early to reserve your seat, though, because tickets don't go on sale until February 25. And as a side note, including the upcoming New Orleans benefit in December and his scheduled appearance with his quintet in February 18 as part of the hall's jazz series, this will be Goines' thrid performance at the Sheldon this season.
