Spring music at CLC includes Kristin Korb at “Art of Jazz”

Music lovers unite with College of Lake County’s (CLC) spring music concerts beginning in March. Critically acclaimed Kristin Korb will be the guest artist at the 48th annual “Art of Jazz” concert series on Sunday, March 16.

Based in Denmark, Kristin Korb is a rare breed of musician who effortlessly blends her talents

as a bassist and vocalist, captivating listeners with her crystal-clear voice while expertly maneuvering the bass. Korb will also lead a free masterclass, open to the public, on Saturday, March 15 at 11 a.m. in Room P101, on CLC’s Grayslake campus.

"We are excited to welcome bassist and vocalist Kristin Korb to CLC to perform with our

award-winning jazz ensemble,” says Michael Flack, CLC Music instructor. Her time with the great bassist Ray Brown (with whom she made her recording debut) along with her impressive teaching resume at the University of Southern California combine to offer our voice and instrumental students as well as the Lake County community a unique opportunity to learn from an experienced performer and educator."
