Audiences are invited to an evening of jazz excellence as the Sonoma State Music Department’s two Concert Jazz Ensembles take the stage. The program features timeless classics by Billy Strayhorn, Thelonious Monk, and Sonny Rollins alongside spirited new works from rising voices in the Bay Area jazz scene—composer Beth Schenck—and SSU’s own Tony Sandoval.

Listeners will enjoy dynamic arrangements, swinging rhythms, and soulful solos that honor jazz’s rich heritage while spotlighting its future innovators.
