Ain't no party like a Park City party!

We had an awesome Saturday traveling to Park City, UT with my parents for the Park City Jazz Festival! We both love jazz music, and there is nothing better than the beautiful setting at Deer Valley to hear it! One of our favorite artists, Gerald Albright, performed in the late evening with fellow saxophonist Kirk Whalum. The music was fantastic, as we expected, with my favorite song of the night being when Gerald joined Kirk in a duet of Kirk's cover of I'll Make Love to You from his new album. It was hot!

The unexpected delight of the evening was a performance by The Crescent Super Band, a jazz band made up entirely of high school students. These kids were amazing-- it was hard to believe that they are all still in their teens! It made us want to get Tom started on an instrument right away... :)
