Youth Combos
Fall/winter Semester start the week of January 18, 2025
Description: Students are placed into groups based on level and work on small group jazz. Open to middle and high school students. Students do not need prior jazz experience, but should have several years of playing on their instrument. Generally we run beginner, intermediate and advanced combos. Students work on classic small group repertoire of Miles Davis, Charlie Parker, Thelonious Monk, Wayne Shorter, John Coltrane etc....
Fall/winter Schedule: January 18 - April 19, 2025 (final concert)
Time: Saturdays 10:30 - 12 PM. Combo times vary with weekday afternoons and Saturday morning and afternoon groups. Groups run thru April.
Tuition is $400 for the fall semester (groups meet 12-13 times during the semester))
To be contacted about placement in an Improvisation class or combo fill in the Youth Registration Form.
The DJW instructors are some of the best area performers/teachers. They motivate students to explore Jazz and develop the language necessary to improvise in a homegrown cultural art form.
Financial aid scholarships are available based on financial needs. The Durham Jazz Workshop never turns down an eligible student based on money.
