The New York jazz quartet Ginetta’s Vendetta performed at ILS, offering the audience well-known numbers such as “Georgia on my mind”, “The girl from Ipanema” and various others. Group leader Ginetta Minichiello introduced the students all the musicians and told them about the unique brass instrument she plays – the “Little Big Horn.”
After that, she invited ILS music teacher Vyacheslav Vedernikov to perform with the group, and they improvised together in an exciting jazz jam. ILS students and teachers were treated to wonderful music and everyone enjoyed themselves immensely at the concert.
“At ILS we love good music,” notes Principal Olga Shevchenko. "Because we are the organizers of the International Children’s Jazz Festival ‘Pacific Fusion’ and we are doubly pleased that an internationally known group performed for our students.”
