Event Details
Feel the energy and excitement as the Peninsula Youth Jazz Band joins forces with the Christopher Newport University Jazz Ensemble for a dynamic evening of music. This special side-by-side concert connects Soundscapes’ young jazz musicians—many still in middle school—with their college counterparts, offering a vibrant showcase of mentorship and creativity. Together, they celebrate the joy of jazz and the power of learning from “older music friends” in a concert that bridges generations through rhythm, improvisation, and the big band sound.
