HappyIndependenceDay!
In operation for more than 30 years, UNC Jazz Press remains heavily rooted in its traditions. We still operate under the umbrella of the world-famous University of Northern Colorado jazz studies program and function primarily as a print-to-order company. However, the days of regional sales and leisurely shipping have been pushed aside for our new international initiative and expedited delivery policy. As always, UNC Jazz Press strives to offer you the most creative jazz ensemble literature from both established composers and up-and-coming writers. Please check back frequently as we update our catalog with new material on an almost weekly basis.
UNC Jazz Press would also like to keep you in the loop with information on new materials and special offers. Please join our mailing list by entering your email address in the text field on the left-hand menu bar.
We sincerely appreciate your business and look forward to continuing our service to you for many years to come!
