Doncaster Youth Jazz Orchestra

Doncaster Youth Jazz Orchestra is the advanced level of the ensembles and specialises in re-creating the 'Music of the Masters' (Ellington, Basie, Herman, Rich etc) and the challenging arrangements of contemporary international and UK composers.

This band develops a variety of styles and the programme includes swing, blues, ballads, Latin, rock, fusion, straight ahead jazz and vocal standards.
