Letter: Too few enjoy great musical performance

Beaufort County music fans: Where were you last Saturday night?

Some of us (about 100 people) were being thoroughly entertained by Rhythm in Blue, the jazz ensemble of the U.S. Air Force “Heritage of America” Band. Eleven very talented musicians and two wonderful vocalists performed classics and pop music and enlightened us with Air Force and jazz history, finishing with a salute to all military branches.

And it was free, with plenty of parking and a wonderfully comfortable venue at Beaufort High School. It was sufficiently advertised and you did not come.
