A TIJO Concert You Won't Want to Miss!
Mona Shores Jazz Bands and TIJO with trumpet super-star, Wayne bergeron
We are excited to announce the return of our Jazz Masters series on March 26th, 2024. Our featured artist this year will be trumpeter Wayne Bergeron! Known as Hollywood’s trumpet player, Wayne is the first call for studio sessions in LA and has been featured on over 500 movies and television shows. A few highlights include Minions, Green Hornet, Star Wars: The Last Jedi, Jeopardy and hundreds of others. In addition to his studio career, Wayne is sought after by Jazz Bands and has played with Gordon Goodwin, Sammy Nestico, Maynard Fergeson and many more.
Wayne will be joining us for a concert featuring Jazz 1, Jazz 2 and the Truth in Jazz Orchestra. Tickets are on sale now and are $30 each, $15 for students. Proceeds from this concert will go to benefit the jazz program at Mona Shores. I hope you are able to join us for this once in a lifetime performance.

Welcome
Playing a mixture of classic jazz big band pieces from the Buddy Rich, Woody Herman, and other big band libraries, plus some VERY recent charts from Gordon Goodwin and others.
We had a great time playing for the West Michigan Jazz Society's Summer Concert Series on Monday, July 26, 2022. They shared some photos of the event on facebook!
