Happy spring holidays, friends! Whether you’re celebrating Easter, Passover, Ramadan, or just surviving the latest ice storm, let’s all make the most of the long weekend ahead!

Ottawa jazz musician and leader of the Ottawa Jazz Orchestra Adrian Cho has created a system that lets musicians in different locations (and us in the audience!) see and hear each other play live. It’s called Syncspace.
