Presenters' Comments on Charged Particles Performances


"The community had been asking for a high quality jazz event, and we couldn’t be happier with Charged Particles!

The crowd was absolutely dazzled by the performance and happily offered a standing ovation at the end.

​We would love to have them come back next year too!

"When you get Jon Krosnick and Charged Particles, you get real live improvisation, and you get just the right amount of jazz education slipped in.  It’s great to have keyboardist Murray Low for his amazing Latin Jazz, Salsa and Afro-Cuban abilities – and his gift for invention.  Thanks very much to the performers for an inspirational evening"
