The Princeton High School Studio Band plays a wide variety of big band music, ranging from classic Ellington and Basie arrangements to the latest Hank Levy and Dennis DiBlasio compositions.
In Spring 2000, the Band placed first in a national competition of high school jazz bands, held at Johns Hopkins University. In addition, the Band will play at Downbeat Magazine's JVC Jazz Festival in New York City in June 2000.
The band is a five-time first-place winner at the Berklee Jazz Festival in Boston and has played for the inaugural balls of Presidents Reagan and Bush.

  There are very few bands at the same level of musicianship as PHS in the entire country, so the Band must travel in order to compete against those bands.
  The Band hopes to participate in some of the following interstate competitions: Rutgers, Lakewood, Mountain Jazz Festival, and others. The Band has also applied for the national competition in Washington, DC.
  Other invitations for this year include a rare opportunity for any high school band: to play at Downbeat Magazine's JVC Jazz Festival in New York City in June, and at an international jazz festival of professional musicians in New Orleans.
