WFIU continued its tribute last Thursday to Bloomington jazz educator Janist Stockhouse, who passed away on December 23, 2024 at the age of 69. Violinist, former Stockhouse student, and Grammy nominee Sara Caswell and Thomas Wilson, Stockhouse's longtime assistant director who succeeded her when she retired from Bloomington North High School in 2019, both joined the program to offer their stories, memories, and insights into this widely-celebrated figure in the music community. Several Stockhouse-related performances and clips from her 2006 WFIU Profiles interview are included in the broadcast as well.
You can also listen to part 1 of our Janis Stockhouse remembrance, with guests Natalie Boeyink, Rachel Caswell, and Lissa May. A public celebration-of-life event, Music and Memories: A Tribute to Janis Stockhouse, will be held at the Ray E. Carmer Marching Hundred Hall in Bloomington on Sunday, January 19 from 3:30-5:30 p.m.
