Following a spring in which they just missed the chance to compete for the school’s 19th state championship due to widespread closures for COVID-19, Pella Jazz I returns to the stage this evening for their first performance of the year. While middle school performers have to wait, the high school’s jazz ensembles can hold their first concert tonight at 8 p.m. The event can be viewed online at the Pella Dutch Live YouTube channel. Pella Jazz last performed at a special celebration to end the 2019-20 academic year as the featured entertainment at the community’s 4th of July celebration.
