For the first time, NCCU Jazz Ensemble 1 will meet the NC A&T Jazz ensemble in a joint concert presented by the Paramount Theatre in Burlington, NC.
Due to renovations, the concert will be held at the Walter M. Williams High School Auditorium, also in Burlington. The concert will feature works by various jazz artists; some will be played by each ensemble separately, while others will be played by both ensembles together. The concert aims to recreate the spirit of the great jazz recording "The Count Meets the Duke," recorded in 1961.
Come out and enjoy the collaboration between two swinging HBCU ensembles — a guaranteed good time for all jazz lovers!
