AMHERST -- While University of Massachusetts students are out for summer break, musicians from across the country gathered to sing, strum and play all things jazz.
Among the participants this year were Greenfield Community College students Daniel Babineau of Athol and David Shattuck of Heath. Both were chosen for a full scholarship for the summer jazz program. The program began on July 12 and ended on July 23.
The two music majors were awarded $1,200 scholarships from the GCC Music Department.
According to the event website, 'Jazz in July is an extensive two-week program focused on joining participants with jazz artists in a learning intensive environment. Jazz in July is centered on teaching improvisation and jazz styles while working to enrich the total musical experience of the participant.'
