First Annual Educational Residency with Britt Education: Jâca!

During the first week of March, Jâca visited Southern Oregon for an educational residency and a concert on March 3 at Grizzly Peak Winery. Jâca is a duo featuring classical guitarist Jaxon Williams, who grew up in the Rogue Valley and studied with Joe Thompson, and clarinetist Wesley Ferreira. The concert was GSSO’s first event co-produced with Britt Education, the education and outreach arm of Britt Music & Arts Festival. Britt Education coordinated visits to three local high school music classes, where the duo performed and shared their experiences creating new music for the guitar and clarinet as well as instrument techniques
