Published: Friday, April 20, 2012 4:06 PM CDT
The second annual jazz concert series at The Shops at Highland Village will feature performances by award-winning students, alumni and faculty from the University of North Texas each Tuesday in May and June from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. Free and open to the public, the concerts will be held in the courtyard between Chico's and Italian restaurant Patrizio.


The series will showcase a variety of jazz bands including: May 1 -- Brian Clancy Quintet; May 8 -- Lynn Seaton Trio; May 15 -- Rosana Eckert Quintet; May 22 - Brasuka, a band specializing in Brazilian jazz; May 29 -- José Aponte Latin Jazz Quintet; June 5 -- The James Riggs Quartet; June 12 -- Luke Brimhall Quartet; June 19 -- saxophonist Adam Hutcheson; and June 26 -- Pete Clagett Quartet

"We have a terrific lineup this spring," said Craig Marshall, manager of UNT's jazz lab bands, who partnered with The Shops of Highland Village to host the series. "The jazz concert series will feature a great mix of vocal talents and instrumentalists highlighting Brazilian, Latin, jazz originals and jazz standards."

Shopping center guests are invited to have dinner on the patio of Patrizio or order a boxed picnic dinner from the Corner Bakery Cafe or Potbelly Sandwich Shop. Blankets and lawn chairs are welcome.

"After a tremendous response from the community last spring, we worked to nearly double the amount of performances this year," said Kelly Smith, consumer marketing manager for the shopping center. "Once again, we are proud to host top-notch local musicians and look forward to another fantastic season."
