The Somers Point Jazz Society has been bringing top-tier jazz concerts and musicians to the Atlantic City/Ocean City, New Jersey region for several years now.
The non-profit group, which presents jazz concerts in order to help raise funds for music and arts programs in the Somers Point School District, has also put together 14 Jazz @ The Point Festivals and has just unveiled the line-up for this year's 15th annual festival, which will take place March 8-11 at a variety of venues in the bayside town on the Jersey Shore.
This year's four-day jazz festival will feature 10 groups, each featuring amazing talents, with a few iconic jazz figures headlining as well. Organizers of the annual festival are touting the event as the "greatest jazz festival value in the universe."?
A pre-event price of $60 per person is good for the entire four-day festival.
And with such legends as Mulgrew Miller (in a trio setting)?and Jimmy Cobb (with his Cobb's Mob)?on the bill, the pre-sale price is pretty outstanding.
The festival, which kicks off on a Thursday and runs through Sunday, is made possible in part through the New Jersey State Council of the Arts/Department of State, a Partner Agency of the National Endowment for the Arts through the Local Arts Grant administered by Atlantic County Office of Cultural & Heritage Affairs.
Sponsors for this event include: Cape Bank, Shore Memorial Hospital, Richard Stockton College of NJ, Walt?s Original Primo Pizza, Sobieski, WRTQ, Kramer Beverage, Pier 4 by the Bay, Mission Point Church, New Jersey State Council of the Arts, South Jersey Industries, and The Heart and Soul Foundation.

The U.S. Copyright office made significant improvements to their online registration system a few years back, rendering the old ?long form? application process nearly extinct for registration of musical compositions and sound recordings.? While you can still submit a claim through the mail, e-filing is by far the best way to go.? A few advantages include a lower filing fee for a basic claim ($35 vs. $65 for paper filing), faster processing time (3 months vs. 10 months), online status tracking for your claim, the ability to upload certain categories of deposits directly as electronic files, and the flexibility to register 24 hours a day.?Lastly, it is easy: plain and simple.
