Chicago Jazz Orchestra raves about the Wentz
What a year for fine arts it’s been at North Central College! A year that saw the opening of the acoustically perfect Wentz Concert Hall, with performances by jazz legend Wynton Marsalis, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and many others.
The Wentz has drawn critical acclaim from artists who have experienced the world-class concert hall. Jeff Lindberg, artistic director for Chicago Jazz Orchestra, recently said, “Wentz Concert Hall is a sorely needed addition to the Chicago-area cultural scene.
“It is a moderately sized hall that is flexible enough to accommodate every type of performing group, from chamber music to jazz to a full symphony orchestra. The sound is always warm and clear in Wentz’s very intimate setting. Bravo to everyone involved in the creation of Wentz Concert Hall!”
Watch this space on June 22 for exciting news about North Central College’s 2009-10 performing arts season!

Hello. I have ushered for NCC concerts for the past four years and am wondering if and when there is a need for ushers this summer. I am assuming that as in the past, someone will contact me for the Fall’s new performing art series. Please let me know. Thanks, Barbara Kaurin
