The Loudoun Jazz Ensemble
(LJE) was formed in January of 1997 by Dick Schroeder (then of Sterling, VA) and is a
performing organization of the Loudoun Community Band, Inc. The purpose of the LJE is
twofold: to provide a group in which area musicians who have a strong interest in
"Big Band" jazz can rehearse on a regular basis; and to bring the results of
their efforts to the people of Loudoun County and the surrounding areas. The LJE is
committed to performing a wide variety of the big band music, from the '40s through today
in the style and excellence expected of such an organization.The LJE is now under the direction of Roger Rossi, the distinguished
former member of the Army Blues Jazz Ensemble.
