FAMILY="SANSSERIF"><BR><FONT face=Arial>Congratulations our Berkeley High School
Jazz Ensemble. They took third place at last weekend's prestigious Monterey Jazz
Festival's High School Competition. This is a national competition and to simply
be chosen to compete on this national level is extraordinary. In addition to the
Ensemble's third place showing, our own BHS Combo gave the performance of a
lifetime and place NUMBER ONE COMBO IN THE COUNTRY. Congratulations to Jullian
Pollack, Billy Buss, Andy Baltazar, Alex Greve, and Alex Shapiro-Romano.
Finally, BHS Ensemble members won a number of individual awards: Billy Buss won
a scholarship from the Berkelee School of Music' summer program in Los Angeles.
In the outstanding soloist Big Band division, congrats go to Julian
Pollack-piano and Andy Baltazar-tenor sax and in the outstanding soloist Combo
division, kudos to Billy Buss-trumpet and Julian
Pollack-piano.</FONT></FONT><FONT size=2 FAMILY="SANSSERIF"></FONT><FONT
