Stan Kenton









These low-fi pictures are from a really HI-FI concert many years ago at the auditorium on campus at Ada, Oklahoma Southeastern College. Sorry about the quality.

Today in 1979 we lost this highly innovative, influential, and often controversial American jazz musician, composer and band leader. In later years he was widely active as an educator. His band during the tour that included Ada and other small colleges, was composed mainly of young musicians he had personally trained. The trombonist sitting on the edge of the stage was chatting with the audience. The tour was undoubtedly a monumental experience for them.
