About
West Michigan Jazz Society is pleased to present their 2017 Musician of the Year Award to Dr. Robin Connell.
Dr. Connell's career has spanned over 30 years; she is a pianist, a vocalist, an educator and a composer. After growing up in Detroit and Northport, MI., she lived and studied in New York, Kansas and Colorado, then after 20 years of travel, lucky for us, landed in Grand Rapids in 1999. She is constantly on the lookout for jazz venues both to promote and to play the music she loves. She held an eight week concert series at the Harris Building last year. Her latest endeavors include a jazz concert series at Fountain Street Church, she co-directs the St Cecilia Youth Jazz Ensembles, and gives lecture-performances on the Great American Songbook....
