Jazz Bands

The Douglas College Dues Band is a large jazz ensemble that rehearses and performs classics from the jazz tradition along with more modern material. Primarily comprised of full-time Douglas College Music students, this group is also a regular contributer to the College's jazz recordings. (Students wishing to become music educators are strongly advised to take at least one jazz elective.)

The Douglas College Night Band is the College's premier jazz ensemble, consisting of the top College music students and experienced professionals. This group has performed at conferences, schools and festivals across the country, including the International Association of Jazz Educators conference. (See Recordings.)
