JAZZ GROUPS 
There is nothing like the cool sophistication of jazz music to liven up
any type of gathering. For listening or dancing pleasure, a small jazz combo or a
full big band swing orchestra may be exactly the unique entertainment that you are
seeking. The Entertainment Exchange offers a wide variety of skilled jazz groups
that can perform music ranging from standards, big band and swing to today's popular jump
boogie and contemporary "smooth" jazz. Below are samples of a few of the
jazz artists offered by the Entertainment Exchange. If you like what you see and
hear, and would like to learn more, please request a FREE PROMO PACK.
 Small Combos & Groups
Small combos and groups can
range from a solo pianist or guitarist to quartets with or without additional
vocalists. Some common combinations include: duos with piano and
bass; trios with piano, bass and drums, and; quartets featuring piano
or guitar along with bass, drums and saxophone. Often you will
find vibes or other types of horns within these groups as well.
These groups are very versatile and are able to perform music from many
eras in a variety of jazz styles. The flexibility in selecting
instruments for the combo of your choice makes this an attractive solution
for those seeking entertainment on a limited budget. Listen to
some RealAudio samples of a few of the jazz combos and groups represented
