						The 
						Lincoln College Contemporary Jazz Studies ensemble 
						hosted a night of music at the Lincoln Arts Institute in 
						downtown Lincoln on Friday evening.
 In addition to some fabulous music, award-winning 
						filmmaker Barbara Allen was in attendance and addressed 
						the audience. She spoke about the value of music in 
						filmmaking. She noted that while many in her position 
						expect music to be written to complement the script, she 
						often finds it is much more impactful when the script is 
						written to complement the music.
 
 LDN will offer additional coverage from the Jazz event 
						at the Lincoln Arts Institute in a future edition.
