The NYJO Ambassadors is a flexible six-piece group made up of current members of the National Youth Jazz Orchestra, who are some of the UK’s brightest jazz talent. Led by NYJO’s Musical Director, Mark Armstrong, the sextet includes exceptional young jazz musicians aged 25 and under. The Ambassadors also have a keen interest in education work, and present workshops regularly across the country. The NYJO Ambassadors offers a high-quality and fun introduction to jazz.

NYJO’s Legends of Jazz programme:
This programme celebrates the greatest jazz classics ever written. Featuring tunes by the undisputable jazz masters, such as Ellington and Monk, alongside legendary modern composers whose works are at the cutting-edge of jazz. Join us on our journey through all the jazz greats!

“NYJO has never been conformist, never hewing to one particular line, never known for fawning replications and very deliberately these days a vehicle for new possibilities.” Peter Vacher, Jazzwise
