Here it is! This is What Everyone is Waiting For! The First of Candices Two Performances for the Spring 2009 Show! In this video, Dr. Kopplin and the Cal Poly Jazz Band present Star Candice Brown performing the Jazz Standard, WELL BE TOGETHER AGAIN (1945) Carl Fischer, lyrics Frankie Lane, arr. Bob Florence.
In 1945 Fischer showed Laine a song that he had written and asked Laine to write a lyric for it. Although they recorded Well Be Together Again that year, a rendition by the vocal group the Pied Pipers was released first. While the song didnt chart, it has remained a solid favorite over the years. from JazzStandards.com Again, Candice shows the timing and voice control she is famous for, leading the Band to a successful conclusion.
One of Candice Browns traits is KEEPING BUSY. As the 2007-08 College of Letters, Arts and Social Sciences (C.L.A.S.S.), Executive Council Vice-President, life can be very hectic.
During (ed. Paul) Ankas last appearance in 2003, Cal Poly Pomona announced the establishment of the Paul Anka Scholarship for Music. At the 2006 event, President Ortiz presented (ed. Then) second-year music major Candice Brown with the inaugural award. Brown, an aspiring songwriter, is a member of the Music Entertainment Industry Student Association (Ed.

Paul) Anka presented the scholarship to music sophomore Candice Brown, who told guests that she aspires to write and perform with the same passion for music as Mr. (ed. Paul) Anka.

Ed. Note: I have to share this. Ed. Note: As I was framing out the newer videos, I received an email from a famous "anonymous" - my term - who had viewed the Cal Poly Jazz Band - UNC Greeley Jazz Festival - Skylark post. She praised Candice Brown's performance by writing that it reminded her of Dinah Shore singing of that when they both were performing at West Hollywood club that week. WOW, to think that someone that noteworthy watched a video from this little Channel is, well, mind-blowing. Anyway, if you read this, take time to see the video she is commenting on. Thank you.
