SUMMARY:Beomjae Kim\, Flutist
DESCRIPTION:Throughout the centuries\, the flute has captured the admiration of countless composers due to its pure\, soaring timbre\, bird-like agility\, and mellowness. Its crystalline tone can express everything from gentle lyricism to vibrant brilliance. Despite its beauty\, writing for an unaccompanied flute presents a unique challenge\, as the instrument alone cannot provide harmony. However\, many skilled composers have risen to this challenge\, discovering ways to convey their distinct inner voices through the flute’s sound. \nThese composers lived during different stylistic periods and drew inspiration from various sources. Whether rooted in baroque elegance\, romantic expressiveness\, or modern innovation\, they succeeded in creating solo flute works that showcase the instrument’s versatility and have become essential contributions to flute literature. \nJoin Beomjae Kim for an afternoon recital highlighting the beauty of the flute. \nGet Tickets \nGateway Lecture Hall (Building 101)\nAll Tickets $10\n \nThis event is funded by the Ocean County College Foundation.

SUMMARY:April Varner
DESCRIPTION:Award-Winning Jazz Vocalist and Composer April Varner\, recognizable by her curly red hair and voice of an “old soul”\, often brings her listeners to another place- one long ago when the giants of jazz were still gracing the stage. Amassing several viral videos on her social media with a million+ views of her challenging solo transcriptions\, cleverly crafted vocaleses and acapella renditions of the Great American Songbook\, April’s voice can fit itself into a myriad of different molds. \nOne of the giants of jazz was the “First Lady of Song”\, Ella Fitzgerald. Paving the way for generations upon generations to come in the realm of vocal jazz and improvisation\, Ella has always been one of April’s biggest inspirations. Having won the 2023 International Ella Fitzgerald Jazz Vocal Competition\, this will be a night filled with Ella’s greatest hits and classics from the very beginning. \nAt the age of 27\, April has immersed herself deeply into the jazz tradition. She has performed/studied with many legendary artists and jazz luminaries such as Tierney Sutton\, Russell Malone\, Sachal Vasandani\, Jane Monheit\, Kurt Elling\, and others. April graduated in May of 2022 with her Master’s degree in Jazz Voice Performance from the Manhattan School of Music under the guidance of 2-time Grammy© nominated vocalist and teacher Theo Bleckmann. She recently received a 2024 Honorable Mention Award in the ASCAP Herb Alpert Young Jazz Composers Competition. She just released her debut album\, awarded 4 out of 5 stars from one of the top jazz publications\, Downbeat Magazine\, “April by April Varner” (Cellar Live Record Label)\, and is available on all streaming platforms. Grammy-Award-winning drummer\, producer\, and educator Ulysses Owens Jr produced this genre-busting collection of all April-titled songs. \nJoin April Varner and her band for an afternoon of “April Sings Ella”—you won’t want to miss it! \nGet Tickets\nAdult $28\, Senior $24 \nJazz on a Sunday Afternoon is made possible through funding from the Wintrode Family Foundation\, the Ocean County College Foundation\, and through support from the New Jersey Jazz Society.
