2026 NSHS Spring Jazz Concert - Blues Jazz Band
Boz
by Jeff Jarvis
Jeff Jarvis’s Boz is a contemporary jazz-rock fusion chart driven by a strong groove and powerful ensemble writing. Influenced by funk and modern big band styles, the piece features layered rhythms, bold brass statements, and dynamic interplay between sections of the ensemble. Jarvis creates an exciting musical atmosphere through syncopation, driving percussion, and opportunities for improvisation. The result is a chart that challenges performers to lock into the groove while delivering energy, style, and precision throughout the performance.
