    A "what's happening" in the jazz world, but also an extremely valuable tool for music educators in North America. Thanks to programs like "Essentially Ellington" there has been a real push to provide music educators with the best resources and opportunities, even going as far as providing free charts for any band program to apply for. Keeping jazz alive in our schools is their mission.
