Feature Story: JazzFest at historic Darke Hall

Abstract

Historic Darke Hall is the venue for two of the headliner acts at this year’s Regina JazzFest June 17 – 21. “Darke Hall is a wonderful venue for jazz,” says Peter Champagne, President of the Regina Jazz Society, which is organizing JazzFest 2015. The University of Regina is one of the sponsors of the event. “Not only does Darke Hall boast one of the best venues in the city for its acoustics, but the ambience is perfectly suited to that of exceptional jazz artists and their performances.” JazzFest kicks off at Darke Hall with two shows featuring solo artist Ester Rada and the Halifax-based group Gypsophilia.
