WOW! What an amazing performance of the annual Sounds of the Season concert tonight! Big congratulations to the Troy University Jazz Ensemble and their director Dave Camwell for a stunning performance. Congrats to Tori Lee Averett for organizing and facilitating the show, and all of the student actors, singers, and musicians. Congrats to Brenda Jean Hamilton for her terrific performance and to David Kirby spot-on 1940s radio announcer persona, to Kenny Beck for great sound and so many more. This was such a great show I was sad when it was over. There is so much amazing talent and ability, and incredible work ethic from the students and my colleagues at Troy University. Bravo!
We have the BEST alumni!
