The Ross Strauser Jazz Orchestra

Founded in Tampa in 2022 by saxophonist, composer, and educator Ross Strauser, this 18-piece contemporary jazz orchestra blends traditional jazz styles with the grooves, harmonies, and textures of funk, rock, soul, Latin, and folk music.
The orchestra released its debut album, Endless Ties, in 2022, featuring Strauser’s original compositions and arrangements and is currently producing its second studio album, Going to the Sun, a 15-movement suite inspired by Glacier National Park.
This concert will feature some of Tampa Bay's finest jazz musicians playing music from both albums, along with exciting new compositions and arrangements. Come hear an 18-piece ensemble working at the intersection of contemporary jazz, big-band tradition, and a wide range of musical influences!
Doors are at 6pm and the seating is limited.
