This year, we are thrilled to be working with jazz vocalist Ranee Lee and clarinet king Buddy Defranco (conceits February 21st and May 15th respectively, 2 pm and 7 pm, at the St. Lawrence Centre).

A respected educator who loves teaching, Ranee Lee revels in the potential of her students, and has remarked "Canada has a wealth of musicians. We should appreciate them more."
