    While the Rhythm Road program is an extension of Jazz Ambassador programs of past, the name "Jazz Ambassadors" is now defunct.

    As a working professional trombonist I totally agree. I perform with a dixieland brass group, a brass chamber(quintet)group, and symphonic band. The symphonic band performs its 20th anniversary concert on May 10th at the Tarrytown Music Hall. Hope to see you all there.
