Jazz Festival wrapping up at Elmhurst College

Elmhurst College will wrap up its four-day celebration of jazz on Sunday with another full day of music at Hammerschmidt Memorial Chapel, 190 Prospect Ave.

The school's 51st annual Jazz Festival brings together professional and student musicians from across the region to show their stuff.

"The main focus is really about education," festival Director Doug Beach said in the days leading up to the fest. "These groups get to hear each other."
