Love, loss and hope. These are three critical elements Maria Jacobs brings – along with her considerable professional experience – to the 51�Թ��� community. Jacobs is a part-time instructor in the Hugh A. Glauser School of Music and a nationally known jazz singer. “Every day that I teach, I learn a tremendous amount,” Jacobs said. “Students come in with ideas and goals for not only their voices, but also knowledge of the ‘Great American Songbook’ and music theory.
