Richie Goods and Chien Chien Lu’s Ohio stop started with the students.

Before the concert, there was a masterclass at Fort Hayes, where two internationally acclaimed jazz artists spent their time with the students of Arts IMPACT Middle School.

They talked about the parts of the job nobody sees from the audience.

How working musicians really practice. What a life in music asks of you. The dedication it takes to build a career from it.

Thank you to Columbus City Schools and Fort Hayes for opening the door, and a special thank you to Music Educator Dustin O’Neil. 🎶 #atribeforjazz taken in Columbus, Ohio by @colscityschools
