The Main Stage

The Northwest Jazz Festival is delighted to welcome back the UB Zodiaque Dance Company to our Main Stage—continuing a cherished new tradition of blending the art of jazz music with the dynamic energy of dance. Last year’s performance was a resounding hit, and we’re excited to once again showcase these talented dancers as they bring a choreographed jazz routine to life, adding a vibrant visual dimension to the festival.

Zodiaque Dance Company, the University at Buffalo’s pre-professional student dance ensemble, is guided by faculty choreographers and regularly features guest artists. Each year, they present two fully produced concerts in the Center for the Arts, as well as special performances across Buffalo, including appearances at the Botanical Gardens and Kleinhans Music Hall. Their return to the Northwest Jazz Festival promises an exhilarating display of movement and music—a must-see celebration of jazz’s spirit and creativity.
