Today we focus on the Grasshoppers program with Douglas Detrick and Nate Francis. Douglas is the Director of Portland Jazz Composers Ensemble, a working musician, and a really nice guy. Nate is a student musician, but also a working sideman himself, and has not yet graduated High School. The concert that this program culminates with is February 24 at The Old Church.

Music:
Andres Moreno, “Night Shadows”
Nate Francis, “Above Happyville”
