HISTORY OF
UNT JAZZ
This academic year, the UNT Jazz Studies
program celebrates its 75th anniversary as a
leader in jazz education. While jazz had been
played before at this and other colleges, the
Dance Band degree at North Texas State Teachers
College was the first bachelor’s degree of its
kind to be offered in the United States. Because
the degree focused on popular American music
at a time when higher education in music dealt
primarily with the European art music tradition, it
quickly attracted national attention. The flagship
ensemble, the Two O’Clock Lab Band, later
renamed the One O’Clock Lab Band, showed
through its performances at competitions and
on tours and recordings that our students were
playing and arranging on a professional level.
This university became known as a place where
aspiring jazz musicians could develop their
talents with the help of a dedicated faculty and
a steady stream of guest artists; meet peers who
would challenge and inspire them; and prepare
to launch their careers with a comprehensive
skill set.
Gene Hall, Leon Breeden, and Neil Slater, the first
three directors of the program, also directed the
One O’Clock Lab Band, our flagship ensemble.
Its international reputation for excellence was
earned through the hard work of generations of
students who were coached to a professional
standard; a yearly recording tradition that began
in 1967 and has resulted in seven Grammy
nominations; and a busy schedule of national
and international tours.
By 2008, when Neil Slater’s tenure ended, the
program had firmly established its reputation for
excellence. The Two O’Clock Lab Band directed
by Jim Riggs, the UNT Jazz Singers directed by
Paris Rutherford, the small group program and
the Zebras ensemble directed by Dan Haerle, and
the guitar ensembles coached by Fred Hamilton
had established traditions of their own. The
addition of a master’s degree improved our ability
to graduate well-prepared educators.
Under the leadership of John Murphy from 2008
to 2019 and Rob Parton since then, the program
has maintained its standards of excellence while
adapting to a changing music profession. The faculty
have worked steadily to revise the curriculum. Our
doctoral degree has produced successful college
educators. We’ve added options in jazz strings and
commercial music. Most recently, the curriculum
has been revised to include a certificate in African
American Studies and to bring more of our students’
work in core music classes into the jazz idiom.
The student-led Jazz and Gender Equity Initiative
embodies our dedication to diversity and inclusion.
Through all of these changes in leadership, faculty,
and curriculum, one element has remained constant:
our focus on students and their musical and
professional growth. Our alumni community extends
to every corner of the music profession. Alumni help
our recent graduates establish themselves in new
cities; they support the program as donors; and by
their varied demonstrations of musical excellence
they show our students that there is no limit to what
they can achieve with a degree from UNT.
