Matt Savage is not just a musical prodigy who has become an international talent; he's one of the inspiring autism stories on the arts scene.
Savage will play two shows at the opening night of the Xerox Rochester International Jazz Festival; then he's heading off on a kind of world tour.

- Matt Savage, pianist
- Maria Battista-Hancock, chair of the Expressive Arts Department, and internship director at Hochstein School of Music
- Megan Resig, co-founder and director of Spectrum Creative Arts LLC
