Division of Jazz Studies

There's no telling where a jazz degree will lead. Guitarist and jazz master's graduate Landon Mattox's path led to China, for teaching and language study.

Landon recently got a job at XingHai Conservatory of Music in Guangzhou, where UNT's Dr. Gene Cho gives lectures every year. He'll be teaching one course in jazz this term in the department of modern music. He's also been playing concerts and recording sessions.

Here's a recent photo taken in YangShuo entitled "cormorant fisherman."
