This week is all about musical youth as the National Youth Jazz Orchestra comes to Milford Haven.

The Torch Theatre hosts an evening of great music as the National Youth Jazz Orchestra (NYJO) comes to town.

As one of Britain’s leading bands, the group is well known throughout the world as a glittering showcase for the country’s best young musicians.

During the orchestra’s long history since 1965, most of the rising generation of jazz musicians have passed through its ranks, often becoming established jazz stars while still playing with NYJO.

Under its founding musical director, Bill Ashton, NYJO has performed many hundreds of concerts all over Britain, made numerous television and radio programmes and recorded about 40 albums.

NYJO is recognised as a world-class jazz orchestra, and regularly tops the bill at festivals. In July 2002, NYJO was voted Best Big Band for the fourth time in the British Jazz Awards by both the critics and the general public.

You don’t have to be a jazz aficionado to enjoy a great night out with this band – just enjoy the great surround sound.

The National Youth Jazz Orchestra can be seen at the Torch Theatre, Milford Haven on Wednesday, February 10th, at 7.30pm.
