The Metropolitan Jazz Orchestra is an 18-piece big band featuring contemporary big-band jazz played by some of Denver’s finest jazz musicians. Their selections are never predictable, always hold your interest, and blow you away with intensity and excitement. The MJO considers the audience as an integral part of the show so expect “stories,” humor, scary-good charts, and a very enjoyable evening!
