Across a 50-year career, Count Basie led one of the most important big bands of the 20th century.

Join Rob Kapilow and the Cal State Fullerton Jazz Band to explore the music and extraordinary career of one of Jazz's most enduring icons through hits including "Jumpin' at the Woodside," "Lil' Darlin," and "April in Paris."
