DU MAURIER RETURNS FOR ALL THAT JAZZ

The annual Toronto Downtown Jazz festival will go ahead this year despite past financial troubles and a near cancellation of the event last year. Long-time sponsor du Maurier will return as title sponsor for the 2001 festival despite new restrictions on tobacco sponsorships. The Montreal-based tobacco company and The Toronto Downtown Jazz Society have been partners in the yearly jazz festival for the past 14 years. The 2001 festival takes place June 22 to July 1. Du Maurier will be contributing funding of over $1 million, said Jim Galloway, artistic director of The Toronto Downtown Jazz Society.
