The Jazz Houston Orchestra
About the JHO:
Jazz Houston is the only the second jazz institution in the US to support a resident Jazz Orchestra, our dynamic ensemble explores the varied array of styles within jazz, while also celebrating Its history and contributing new works to its cannon. To showcase the diverse musical and cultural heritage of Houston, our organization strives to collaborate with artists from other genres including Gospel, Pop, Orchestral Music, and R&B. In addition we create experiences that mesh jazz with other performing arts disciplines such as theater, opera, and dance.
