The UMS Jazz combo is made up of several talented 8th grade musicians, most of whom also perform in the UMS Tiger Big Band.  Harrison Huang leads most rehearsals and plays alto saxophone, Eric Wu is the combo's drummer, Joel Foreman plays bass and sometimes keyboard, Zach Lee plays Piano and keyboard, Tina Lovre plays guitar, and Aryan Mohanty plays tenor sax.

The UMS Music program has over 200 students, 5 band classes, an after school choir, an after school percussion club, and the after school jazz combo.  During the school day, the director Mr. Kay teaches beginning band, intermediate band, two jazz bands, and the symphonic band, which travels and performs as the department's showcase group.
