Under the direction of Leon Anderson Jr., an acclaimed drummer and educator at Florida State University, experience the magic of jazz unfold beneath the majestic oaks of Goodwood. Hailing from the vibrant New Orleans jazz scene, Leon has collaborated with legends like Marcus Roberts and Wynton Marsalis and has graced the stage with the Los Angeles Philharmonic at the Hollywood Bowl, the Jacksonville Jazz Festival, and many renowned international jazz orchestras.
