Temple University Jazz Band: Jazz Ensemble in New York

About Temple University Jazz Band

The Temple University Jazz Band is a large-ensemble jazz group drawn from Temple University’s performance program, working in the big band tradition. In New York City, the band has appeared at Dizzy’s Club, sharing the bill with the Jazz Academy Big Band and the Jazz Academy Youth Orchestra, alongside musicians such as Julius Tolentino and Tatum Greenblatt. The setting places university-level players in dialogue with education-driven ensembles connected to Jazz at Lincoln Center. Their performances tend to favor ensemble precision and sectional balance over showmanship.
