Jazz Chamber Ensembles

Directed by renowned UVA music faculty members Pete Spaar, Jeff Decker and Mike Rosensky, the Jazz Chamber Ensembles range in size from quartets to octets and vary in skill-level from beginner-intermediate to advanced. Besides a formal concert at the end of each semester, the groups do several outreach performances in the Charlottesville community, and give a final end-of-year celebration concert, "Jazz in the Amphitheatre." Repertoire is chosen from a diverse range of jazz styles by such greats as Duke Ellington, Charlie Parker, John Coltrane, Wayne Shorter, Lee Morgan, Antonio Carlos Jobim, among many others, as well as origninal compositions by both faculty and students.
