Betty Wong–musician, composer and 50+ year veteran teacher at San Francisco’s century-old Community Music Center and long-time Glen Park resident–presents her annual CMC Chinese New Year world music and jazz celebration!

Teachers, students and friends of the CMC will cover a diverse range of music as befits San Francisco, one of the world’s great multi-cultural hubs. From traditional Chinese melodies to western classical compositions to the tango, the first segment of the afternoon will display the talents of new and long-time CMC musicians, followed by a set featuring Betty’s dear jazz friends in the Randy Craig Trio — Ken Rosen, saxophone; Randy Craig, piano; Richard Saunders, bass.

Join us to pay tribute to the cycle of the Chinese zodiac, and to enjoy the great spirit that inhabits Betty Wong and all the musicians touched by the greatness of the Community Music Center!
