uh to have a certain young man in my jazz band. I have a great fortune of all these people, but this person being brings a particular something uh and that is Cohen Rashonne over here. [applause] >> [applause]
>> Uh Cohen um much like Damian here plays strings. He's a double bass player. Damian is also violin. He's done clarinet. He's done uh saxophone. Uh done multiple instruments over the time.
Mila is also on flute and piano. uh French horn and trumpet over here for this guy Aiah. Uh but Cohen really does the gamut. Uh he plays sachs. Uh all the sexes, any of the sexes, you name it, he
can play it. Uh he his primary instrument is bass. Um but he also studies jazz with the greatest in the area through the Detroit Civic uh jazz program. Uh that is done through the Detroit Symphony. So he goes weekly down
to uh Detroit. Is it weekly? >> Not this semester. Um so he goes there and he's learned so much from them and he brings so much to us. And I want to point out his name is Rashonne. And if you look in your program there, who's our arranger on both these tunes
today? Cohen Ron. [applause] >> [cheering] [applause] >> not just a jazz composer but also a classical composer. We're going to perform a piece with the orchestra on the concert in a couple weeks at Dearborn High. And this was a tune I was
not familiar with and thank you Cohen for bringing it to my attention because it is fun. O be a wedding. [music] Heat. Heat. Hey. Hey. Hey. >> [music] [music]
