Jerome Monachino, music minister for Edmundite Campus Ministry, this recent summer joined a group of top-level professional jazz musicians from the New York City scene who were up to campus as part of a workshop for working musicians, led by the acclaimed veteran Israeli-born jazz guitarist Roni Ben Hur. Workshop faculty gave concerts in the Recital Hall. A Vermont guitar-scene friend of Jerome’s knew him to be an accomplished jazz player who does regular local gigs beyond his ministry work as a guitarist, and so tipped him off about the workshop coming to St. Mike’s. Jerome signed up fast and joined about 35 other students who spent a week learning from six highly accomplished faculty.
