As the Navy's premier jazz ensemble, the Commodores have been performing the very best of “big band” jazz for the Navy and the nation for more than 50 years. Formed in 1969, this 18-member group continues the jazz “big band” legacy with some of the finest musicians in the world. The Commodores' mission includes public concerts, national concert tours, ceremonial support in honoring U.S. veterans, jazz education classes and clinics, and protocol performances for high-level military and civilian government officials.
The Commodores are held in high regard nationwide by concert patrons and critics alike. They have appeared on television shows, played nearly all major jazz festivals and toured across the U.S. and abroad. As a versatile and relevant musical organization in the 21st century, the Commodores write and arrange much of their vast library of music. Their concerts are an eclectic mix of traditional “big band” music, exciting jazz vocal arrangements, and fresh new instrumental music written specifically for the Commodores of today.
This concert will be held in Artpark’s indoor Mainstage Theater, 450 S. Fourth St. Seating will be general admission. Complimentary tickets are available now while supplies last at the Artpark box office during regular business hours. Limit four tickets per person.
