They played a great set that included Eddie Daniels performing some fantastic clarinet and saxophone solo performances. The evening ended with the Hilton High School Jazz Ensemble performing five numbers. The numbers included We'll Get It, Hay Burner, Decoupage and an original piece commissioned for the band called Needledrop. For the final number the Hilton High School Jazz Ensemble was joined by Eddie Daniels to play the David Benoit song Sao Paulo.
