Southampton University Jazz Orchestra at The Concorde

SUJO was set up within the University of Southampton and has since gone from strength to strength having played at a number of prestigious venues in recent years ranging from the Concorde Club to the North Sea Jazz Festival and, this Summer, the Montreux Jazz Festival!
