For this summer’s 2007 Vineyard Vibes concert on the Massachusetts island, Berklee Assistant Vice President for Student Affairs Steven Lipman and Dick Weisberg, managing director of B/R Creative, produced a night of soul, funk, and r&b featuring multiplatinum-selling recording artist Jeffrey Osborne and a group of the college’s top student vocalists and instrumentalists. Directed by Professor Ken Zambello, the show included a set by Osborne and a tribute to the legends of soul, with the students joining forces with Osborne on several numbers.
For seven years, Vineyard Vibes has been a showcase for performances from some of Berklee’s top students, alumni, and faculty and a premier summer music event on Martha’s Vineyard.
