This year, Brunswick’s Middle School Jazz Band features a wide range of instruments, from clarinets to French horns to a bass.

The Visintainer and Edwards Middle School band teacher, Ethan Eraybar, works with the Jazz Band. There will be three hard songs the students have to learn for their upcoming concerts on April 20 and May 15. With only 15 practices this year, the Jazz Band must make every moment count.

Eraybar said, “I’m really excited about this year. There are over 50 members in the Jazz Band, and musicianship is at its highest.”

With an excited teacher and focused students, this year promises to be a good one.
