Featuring The New Sextet, Soapsuds and Song X. Arms Music Center, Room 7. 7 p.m.

Amherst College student jazz musicians offer a night of jazz performed by student combos, free and open to the public.

The combos are small groups of musicians who are dedicated to studying the great artists of jazz and carrying on their legacy through making innovative journeys into improvisation and small group playing. This prepares the group for life after college by exposing the combo to standard charts, techniques and theory, while encouraging each to create their own sound through tune selection, arrangement and use of original compositions.

Did you know you can hire combos for your events?
For small to large events, a jazz combo is a perfect way to add a touch of class or a spark of energy to any gathering.
