Special Guest


The Rincon / University Jazz bands develop skilled members with a dedication to Jazz music. The RUHS Jazz program has a history of excellence and has been recognized locally, statewide, and nationally. Its members are among the top Jazz musicians in the state, as evidenced by the number of our students placed in the ABODA Allstate Jazz Ensembles. In 2019, after a competitive, rigorous application process, RUHS Jazz l was selected to attend and perform at The Midwest Clinic, a convention attended by 20,000 band and orchestra directors, the largest of its kind in the world. In 2023, Jazz l was selected to perform at the Arizona Music Educators Association Conference. 

Join us for an entertaining evening while supporting these talented musicians.
