The Jazz Combo is an ensemble that plays an eclectic variety of styles within the Jazz idiom to include genres that have a contemporary flair as well. The Jazz Combo keeps true to its roots as the keepers of American music, but is not afraid to branch out and play tunes from the Top 40, R&B, Funk, Blues, among others. The Jazz Combo is similar to the Big Band in set-up but much smaller in size; typically featuring about five to six people. The constant in the Jazz Combo is the rhythm section which comprises a drum-set, bass, and piano/guitar. The horns vary and could include any combination of trumpet, saxophone, or trombone. While the Jazz Combo is an impeccable group to feature at dinner or cocktail hour to accompany the meal with the soulful heritage of Jazz, it has also been featured at concerts, public schools, receptions, and master classes.
