President Steven Knapp took the stage at WRGW's annual jazz brunch Sunday morning with the GW Jazz All Stars in front of an audience of students, faculty and administrators including Provost Steven Lermen and Global Media Institute Director Michael Freedman.

Not only did the University president help anchor the rhythm section, bassist Dominic Martinez, senior, passed off to Knapp for a lively solo. Check out the performance below.
