Joe Manzoli and I were up early this morning for a radio interview on the premier jazz station in Toronto, Jazz.FM91. Joe went on the air with a tenor saxophonist he studied with while in Canada, Kirk MacDonald. They talked about the youth jazz program here in Toronto, its collaboration with Berklee the previous day, and their upcoming performance at The Rex Jazz & Blues Bar.
Toronto, Canada. Home to seven major league sports, the CN tower, a zoo, film festivals, and the Toronto Jazz Festival. My name is Michael Borgida, and I am here road managing the Berklee Globe Jazz Institute Quartet (BGJIQ) featuring Joe Manzoli on guitar, Caili O’Doherty on piano, Shin Sakaino on bass and Isaac Haselkorn on drums (from left).
