The CU Boulder Thompson Jazz Studies Program presents an evening of traditional and contemporary jazz featuring composers such as Billy Strayhorn, Thomas Jobim, Cole Porter, Sun Ra, Joe Henderson and more. Student combos will perform simultaneously in two Imig Music Building venues: Grusin Music Hall and Room S134.Jazz combos are organized to develop improvisational skills in a small group setting and to study significant periods, styles and artists in jazz history. Combo members are also encouraged to develop their own arranging and composing skills, and to use the combos as a vehicle for their own creative efforts. One of our combos was recently recognized in DownBeat’s 2016 Student Music Awards as one of the nation’s outstanding small jazz ensembles.
From orchestras, bands and choirs to jazz, world music and opera to world-class faculty and guest performances, the CU Boulder College of Music brings hundreds of stunning performances to Boulder audiences throughout the academic year.
Presented in-person and livestreamed on our website.
