Jazz Singers

The Jazz Singers is one of the newest groups on campus performing music that encompasses a wide variety of contemporary and historical jazz styles. An emphasis is placed on solo improvisation.

Director Cindy Bourquin began singing at the age of three, and her first performance followed soon after at a local coffee house. Since, she has studied with great educators including Phil Mattson, Paris Rutherford, Henry “Hal” Gibbons, Ron McCurdy and Robert Edwards. She graduated from the University of North Texas, and then attended graduate school at the University of Minnesota. She is an active studio singer and can be heard on movie scores (including Galaxy Quest, Meet the Parents and Jungle Book II), commercials and theme park music. Bourquin is currently working on a recording of original songs, and directing the vocal jazz ensembles.
