Mission Statement

The mission of the Colorado Jazz Group is to reach the new generation of youth & inspire them to love the greatest of American inventions.

Description

Partnering with local & international artists, the Colorado Jazz Group serves Front Range schools and offers jazz education free of charge. In 2017 a partnership with the Vail Jazz Goes to School program brought a highly successful 19 year curriculum to three area elementaries (Niwot Elementary, Sacred Heart of Boulder and Ryan Elementary).

The Colorado Jazz Group Lions was formed to bridge the gap between students and professionals. In the Niwot area as well as Colorado Springs, this mixed generational ensemble combines performance, practice, and top quality instruction.
