UNCG Jazz Ensemble II – In the Crown

In The Crown

UNCG Jazz Ensemble II celebrates trumpeter Kenny Dorham! Dorham’s subtle improvisational voice and compositional prowess loomed large over American music in the 1950s-60s; even the praise-cautious Miles Davis was an unashamed admirer of his Texas-born trumpet peer. Jazz Ensemble II brings a program of all-new, world-premiere big band arrangements of Dorham’s legendary compositions to The Crown on November 7 in celebration of Dorham’s centennial year.

Tickets are $12 Adults and $9 Seniors, Military, Students.
Ticket Commissions: $3 processing fee plus sales tax

This event is seated.

ABOUT THE CROWN

The Miles Davis Jazz Studies Program at UNCG is a unique and innovative undergraduate jazz program designed to emulate the traditional process of learning jazz, through a combination of mentorship, real-world playing experiences, and a communal approach to learning. Although the program is housed in one of the largest music schools in the Southeast, it is kept intentionally small, resulting in an intensive and highly personalized learning environment.
