While a street-side jazz concert in Budapest made for a picturesque concert for Music Prof. Curt Wilson and the TCU Jazz Band, it was the 34th Montreux Jazz Festival that brought them to Europe. TCU continues to be one of the few college bands invited to play. From the tunes of Duke Ellington and Glenn Miller to original compositions by the late Harvey Anderson ’46, the band traveled and got “better and better” as they played side shows in Vienna and elsewhere. “European audiences really appreciate jazz,” Wilson said. “Hitler forbid American music, so in a way jazz denotes freedom to a lot of people here.”
