Representing all forms of jazz from all eras, the Al Cohn Memorial Jazz Collection was founded in 1988 and named in honor of the award-winning Al Cohn \u2014 legendary saxophonist, arranger, composer and conductor. Zoot Fest was named in honor of Al\u2019s longtime partner and fellow saxophonist, Zoot Sims. The Collection is housed in Kemp Library on the campus of ESU and consists of jazz recordings, oral histories, sheet music, photographs, books, videos, and original art and memorabilia generously donated over the years by its many supporters.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about Zoot Fest and the Al Cohn Collection contact Jazz Program Coordinator, Matt Vashlishan at 570-422-3828 or email <a href=\"mailto:alcohncollection@esu.edu\">alcohncollection@esu.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Zoot Fest 2016 will be held on Sunday, November 13<sup>th<\/sup>, 2016 at the Cecilia S.
