Jazz at Gustavus

Jazz at Gustavus Gustavus Adolphus College embraces the diverse musical interests of our students by offering a wide mix of performing jazz ensembles.

The Gustavus Jazz Studies program has a long history of excellence throughout the state of Minnesota and northern midwest. In 2015, the Gustavus Jazz Lab Band won the College Big Band Division at the prestigious Eau Claire Jazz Festival. This past January, the Gustavus Jazz Lab Band (with the Gustavus Symphony Orchestra) traveled to Greece and Macedonia on an international cultural immersion tour.

The program boasts two large big bands, a vocal jazz ensemble, five combos, and a jazz guitar collective. Course offerings include: jazz history, improvisation, music industry & entrepreneurship, recording techniques, applied lessons, and independent studies in composition and arranging.
