Seventh-grade piano students from Charleston County School of the Arts sat in to play jazz classics during a special Sunday evening gig at The Mezz, Charleston’s downtown jazz bar. The students, taught by keyboard player (and drummer in this photo) Joe Clarke, get a feel for live playing, which expands classroom learning in countless ways. In this photo, a student is performing with Clarke and bassist Roman Pekar and saxophone player Kevin Patton. Photo by Andy Brack.
