The jazz performance was held November 10th at 8pm at Harford Community College. It was a cold evening and Joppa Hall was felt empty. The reason for that emptiness was a result of the fact that most individuals who were in Joppa Hall on that cold November evening were in fact all packed into Recital Hall #1 to fill their ears and souls with music. Most individuals in the hall were older and seemed to be there only for the music. The Silvano Monasterios Quartet were set to preform at 8 pm and as that
