Take Five: Kenyon College Jazz A Capella Group
The Kenyon College A Cappella Group will give an in-person performance at the Library. Founded in 2003, Take Five (orTake 5) is Kenyon College’s premiere jazz a capella group! They arrange and perform everything from jazz standards to funk and bossa nova–even in a variety of different languages. Every winter, Take Five embarks on a week-long tour: performing at schools, clubs, and community events. This is in addition to seasonal concerts on Kenyon’s campus. Members are a creative, energetic, and musical bunch who love to perform! This coming year, members are from all over the US, and represent all class years. You won’t want to miss this talented, enthusiastic young group of artists performing in-person at the Library.
