Kings Wisconsin students show their musical talents in the jazz band concert

UWO-Fox Cities' Jazz Band recently performed for the community, with student and faculty members playing the saxophone, trumpet, guitar, bass, piano, and drums. Kings Wisconsin first year students, Bodong “Benny” Chen (China) and Felipe Jun Ding Iglesia (Malaysia) played the piano and guitar.

Felipe has been playing the guitar for only two years and has been enjoying his studies at UWO-Fox Cities. “Playing music is a unique form of expression, especially how it’s used in soundtracks and in movies” Felipe said. He mentioned that he was introduced to jazz music because of his music class this semester and has grown to love jazz music.

Benny has been playing the piano for 15 years and really loves classical music, with his favorite classical composer being Johann Sebastian Bach.

Kings Wisconsin celebrates our students who are musically inclined and encourage students to participate in groups and activities related to the arts.
