Celebrate Women’s History Month

Please enjoy this message from MSM Dean of Jazz Arts Ingrid Jensen in celebration of International Woman's Day. "Every March, Women’s History Month shines a bold beam of light on the achievements of the often-lesser-known artists who represent as women. In the field of Black American Music (Jazz), the catalogue of under-acknowledged female artistry runs deep and continues to evolve as artists from days past and those currently trending get their due," she writes.
