Jazz Festival Dedicated to Phil Wilson

Phil Wilson

Kelly Davidson

On March 2, the 45th annual Berklee High School Jazz Festival will be dedicated to Professor Phil Wilson. Wilson and his Berklee Rainbow Band have been a part of the festival since the beginning, so this jazz-filled day is fitting tribute to honor and acknowledge Wilson’s contributions through the years.

The festival will be held at the Hynes Convention Center, 900 Boylston Street, with events beginning at 9:00 A.M. The first evening concert is scheduled for 5:30 P.M. and will feature the Rainbow Band with special guest Aubrey Logan. The festival awards presentation will follow.
