Traditional and contemporary forms of Latin music are surveyed, including Afro jazz, Afro-Cuban, danzón, salsa, calypso and cha-cha-chá, as well as Brazilian forms such as samba and baião. Jazz II, comprised of both jazz and non-jazz majors, performs a wide selection of repertoire for big band. Students develop their mastery of styles, ensemble playing and improvisation.
