Details

This applied program offered to students in middle and high school who want to continue improving their individual skills within the context of a small jazz ensemble. The 12-week (2-3 hour) sessions provide students the opportunity to grow their individual skills within a supportive and relaxed ensemble environment, with a concentration on exploring jazz styles, standard repertoire, jazz improvisation, and history.
Students with at least one year experience are welcome! Financial aid and needs-based scholarships available.
Four skill levels are offered. Auditions are held, January 15 & 22, for placement at the appropriate skill level.

The ensembles bring students together from a variety of backgrounds and skill levels to create a fun and motivating applied learning experience. Workshop participants perform for community events, including an end-of-session public concert. The workshops are open to ALL instruments including vocals.
Thanks to program sponsors Charlotte Women’s Club and Akers Foundation.
