Rockin' in Rhythm

Note from the Instructor: ***Hello! My name is Remy Kunstler and I will be a senior next year at Ithaca College as an Aging Studies major with a minor in Music. I play the saxophone in a local band called The Buddhi, and I also play in the Big Band at IC. I love music and I love people, so I am greatly looking forward to our experiences together. My intense love and passion for swing often makes me wonder whether I was born in the wrong generation—which is exactly why I want to share this passion with you.
