Set to begin at 8 p.m. under the direction of Marc Hartmann, the jazz musicians will delight guests with their enthusiastic performances of both traditional and modern pieces at the “End of Semester Concert”.

The TU Big Band is comprised primarily of TU Chemnitz students, academic staff and alumni. They are joined by musicians from Chemnitz schools and businesses.
