Spartan Jazz Collective ∙ Milestones: A Miles Davis Centennial Concert

The Spartan Jazz Collective, a collaborative faculty/student septet, closes out our semester-long celebration of Miles Davis’ centennial year with 9 all-new arrangements of Davis’ most compelling original music.

The Miles Davis Jazz Studies Program at UNCG is a unique and innovative undergraduate jazz program designed to emulate the traditional process of learning jazz, through a combination of mentorship, real-world playing experiences, and a communal approach to learning. Although the program is housed in one of the largest music schools in the Southeast, it is kept intentionally small, resulting in an intensive and highly personalized learning environment.

 UNCG offers the following degree programs for students interested in studying Jazz:

• Bachelor of Music (B.M.) – Performance
• Post-Baccalaureate Certificate in Jazz Studies
