Johnson County Landmark – “Should A Big Band be Playing This? Vol. 1: The Music of Jacob Mann”

Sunday, October 4, 2026 7:30pm
Voxman Music Building

Please join Johnson County Landmark (JCL) for their opening concert of the 2026-27 school year – which features the music of modern jazz composer Jacob Mann. Mann represents one of the most potent compositional voices in contemporary jazz, and reflects a musical esthetic a bit “closer to home” for our ensemble student’s own generation. As such, this concert will feature a glimpse of what is happening in big band jazz right now as we speak. Part jazz, part funk, part electronic dance music (EDM)...
