Last Friday night the Bromfield cafeteria was packed with cool cats swinging to the jazz stylings of the Bromfield middle school and high school jazz ensembles. The evening was topped off with a show featuring Dan Gabel and the Abletones. Fanfare, the music booster organization for Harvard’s public schools, sponsored the event for the second year in a row, with refreshments provided by Chef Paul and the musicians’ families.
