Welcome to the Jazz Season page.

Our four jazz ensembles perform twice each semester. SSU Jazz ensembles include:

• SSU Jazz Orchestra – the flagship 18-piece ensemble performing Big Band standards and modern jazz ensemble repertoire
• Concert Jazz Combos – two ensembles each semester rotating on a particular jazz sub-genre or era
• Latin Band – devoted to the styles, rhythms, and concepts found in music from the Caribbean, Brazil, and Haiti 

Jazz Forums are now on Wednesdays from 1:00 p.m. - 2:45 p.m.
