The One O'Clock Lab Band performed at one of the world's largest gatherings of professional, amateur and student saxophonists — the 15th World Saxophone Congress — in July at Mahidol University in Bangkok, Thailand. Soloists James Carter and Brad Leali ('99), assistant professor of music, joined the band for its featured jazz performance.
The congress, which takes place about every three years, allows saxophonists to attend, present and share music, ideas and techniques. The event marks the band's first international performance under new director Steve Wiest ('88 M.M.).
