Jazz is America's most important original art form, yet opportunities to experience it live can be limited. At the Colorado Jazz Repertory Orchestra (CJRO), our mission is to present classic large and small ensemble jazz and commission new works for our audiences. Our strength lies in our ability to deliver high-quality performances across a variety of styles, from the timeless elegance of classic big band jazz to the infectious rhythms of Latin music, R&B, soul and pop.
The CJRO is experiencing significant growth, having nearly doubled our performances this season from last. We have also expanded our partnerships, which will enhance our reach and impact. This season we are collaborating with Samba Colorado, Wonderbound, and the Denver Gay Men’s Chorus to introduce more people to the genre of jazz.
While our ticket sales are strong, your support is crucial to sustain this growth. Our goal is to bring exceptional jazz to larger audiences, commission new works, and continue to expand our collaborations with other arts organizations. By supporting CJRO, you ensure that jazz continues to entertain, educate, and inspire our community.
We invite you to join us in supporting CJRO's mission. Your contribution will help us bring exceptional jazz performances to our community and ensure that this vibrant art form thrives for future generations. Thank you for considering a gift to the Colorado Jazz Repertory Orchestra.
Our parent organization is Colorado Jazz, Inc., a 501 (c)3 non-profit registered with the State of Colorado and the IRS (EIN # 46-5557321).
