Taste of Jazz with the Dallas Metroplex Musicians’ Association
On Dec. 2 and 3, Dallas Metroplex Musicians’ Association (DMMA) hosted their second annual Taste of Jazz event, a new performance program that is in partnership with the City of Dallas Office of Arts & Culture and Moody Fund for the Arts. This year’s program highlighted local jazz artists Herbie K. Johnson Quartet, the Jazz Becuzz Arts Group, and the Sonny Joseph Associate All-Stars.
The DMMA is a 5019(c)3 nonprofit organization founded in 1985. As an affiliate of the historicΒ National Association of Negro Musicians, DMMA promotes the profession of music among local African American musicians, works to preserve the legacy of distinctively African American music such as the Negro Spiritual, and nurtures musical talent by awarding annual scholarships.
