TEMECULA -- Gardner Middle School students have learned that when it comes to jazz, it don't mean a thing if it ain't got that swing.
It's been the biggest lesson for the students as they have undergone an extreme crash course in playing jazz, learning eight songs in a little more than two weeks, band director Carlos La Farga said.
Up until 2 1/2 weeks ago, most of the students enrolled in La Farga's elective band course had only played concert music, which is what they are taught all year as part of the class.
