The Grand Rapids Federation of Musicians and the Grand Rapids Community College Music Department are putting together a Ray Gill All-Star Jazz Orchestra to perform at this event. The All-Star group is open to all professional jazz musicians who can read big band charts, but we are especially interested in the participation of as many musicians who played with Ray as possible. They will be playing some charts from Ray’s big band book and from the GRJO book; Bob Nixon will direct. This group will also back up the Shades of Blue on one number. 

Proceeds from the concert will go toward the creation of a Ray Gill Instrumental Jazz Scholarship at GRCC. For more info, go to http://www.livemusicgr.org/raygilltribute.cfm.
