A group of creative musicians with immense talent and polished skills, the MDC Jazz Faculty Ensemble is an amazing group that is proud to be Miami Dade College’s own.

Separately heralded as some of South Florida’s finest musicians, the ensemble features musicians including saxophonist Mark Small, pianist Jim Gasior, bassist Patrick Leavy and drummer Ludwig Afonso. As diverse musicians with a variety of musical backgrounds, their performances project a blending of styles that possibly only come together with jazz.

A mainstay for this series, they are seen accompanying many of the visiting artists. As they are superb musicians themselves, they are occasionally featured individually at Jazz at Wolfson Presents concerts as guest artists.

In addition to their teaching responsibilities at MDC, these musicians are active in the jazz community performing at various venues throughout South Florida, the United States and the world.

All concerts are free and open to the public. Live performances will take place at Wolfson Campus Auditorium, 300 N.E. Second Ave., Miami, FL 33132. Building 1, Room 1261. Performances will be livestreamed, except for the student ensembles.
