Jazz Evening with Edinburgh University Jazz Orchestra
Friday 14th February 2020, 7.00 for 7.30pm, £40
The Edinburgh University Jazz Orchestra (a.k.a. EUJO) is the University’s official Big Band, and one of the finest in Edinburgh! They are a 17-piece band consisting of some of the finest jazz musicians studying at the University – all band members re-audition every year to ensure the highest possible quality of music, so they never have the same band twice! The orchestra consists of four trumpets, four trombones, fives saxes, a four-person rhythm section, with a number of amazing singers to compliment the big band. Originally founded in 1987 as a dance band, EUJO is committed to spreading a passion for jazz throughout Edinburgh, the UK and Europe, performing for societies and local charities, as well as private and official university functions. The evening will begin with a glass of champagne on arrival followed by a 3 course dinner with wine. Dress code for the evening is smart casual.
