Music of Colorado Composers

Back by popular demand, Jazz Ensembles I and II perform the music of composers from the great state of Colorado! The Centennial State is home to some of the greatest modern big band composers in the country, including resident composer Wil Swindler. “We had a great time featuring music from our friends from around the state a couple of years ago, and are excited to dig into their oeuvre again,” says Peter Sommer, director of Jazz Studies. Join us for an evening of original compositions and arrangements for big band by composers from our own jazz community!
