Bands from schools across Manitoba flocked to Brandon this week for the Brandon University Jazz Festival — the first since 2019 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Students took part in performances and workshops at the BU School of Music and the Western Manitoba Centennial Auditorium for the festival, which wraps up today.
