NAU Jazz Festival 2009
February 26-28, 2009
NAU Ardrey Auditorium
The NAU Jazz Festival is a non-competitive arena for middle school, high school, and junior colleges. This type of festival creates a relaxed atmosphere that promotes education as opposed to competition. Big bands and combos perform for three adjudicators to receive ratings and/or comments. Following the performances, most groups will participate in feedback clinics.
This year marks the 47th annual NAU Jazz Festival. Over 50 bands statewide will be performing in Ardrey Auditorium throughout the day during February 26-28. The public is invited to view all performances and support the participating bands. These performances are free to the public.
This year’s guest artist is saxophone player Dave Liebman. He will be performing in a concert with NAU Jazz One on Friday evening, February 27, 2009. Tickets will be available at the NAU Central Ticket Office.
