The New Tradition Jazz Ensemble is the brain child of Ed Micklos, whose desire to preserve jazz music, led to the group's creation. The NTJE performs all styles of jazz, from music of the big band era to the contemporary jazz music of today. You can find the New Tradition Jazz Ensemble performing anywhere from pie festivals, to weddings and other social events, to the Lake Lily Jazz Festival.
The ensemble is made up of musicians from all walks of life. From seasoned professionals to novice musicians, both young and old, the New Tradition Jazz Ensemble will deliver a first rate, entertaining, musical experience.
The ensemble is under the direction of Frank Taylor, Vice President of Inferno Music Group, LLC and IMG Records.
The New Tradition Jazz Ensemble is quickly emerging as central Florida's leading jazz ensemble. Be there to experience the music!

Re: Word of the Week
WORD OF THE WEEK (4/4-4/15) IS: "GROOVE"
1. An adjective describing a rhythmic quality of music that is emotionally communicative and soulful; used for music moving at a steady beat. "I am feelin' this groove!"
2. A verb meaning to smoothly interact, maintain or improve relations with a person, or a situation.
*Not to be confused with "Groovy" which was a previous word of the week - two totally different words.
Have a great week! Happy Easter - Jake Glasgow (Mister G)
