Jazz has been an integral part of the University of Northern Iowa School of Music for 50 years. Originating as a dance band Jazz Studies program, recognized nationally, it has grown to include several large and small jazz ensembles as well as a full curriculum of jazz studies courses. Comparing the UNI Jazz Studies program with other programs across the nation, Arts Midwest saluted the UNI program as "one of the best."
