NAU Jazz Studies has two full big bands (Jazz Ensemble One and Jazz Ensemble Two) that are featured on multiple concerts throughout the year as well as the annual NAU Jazz Festival every February. Students perform a variety of exciting music; traditional big band swing from Count Basie and Duke Ellington to the modern big band repertoire of Maria Schneider and even adaptations of popular artists such as Radio Head. Many students are talented improvisers and often get the opportunity to be featured as soloists.
