The Rochester International Jazz Festival was probably the best week of work each year, ever. For five years I had the opportunity to cover the festival, hear amazing music, meet wonderful musicians and tell great stories.
Originally built in the program Flash, which is no longer supported, I have begun converting the stories into videos. A few of them are here.
