Jazz Combo (students will be placed into groups according to level, not age)
The camp limits enrollment to 20 students and has no audition requirement. Middle school and high school students can apply. **the camp is not a beginner instrumental class, so middle schoolers should be fairly advanced to get the most out of the camp. Students do not need prior jazz experience. The camp also has a more advanced combo for students with prior jazz experience.
A guiding thought of the camp is to get the students playing as much music as possible each day. Beginner groups will learn some core jazz songs and be introduced to improvisation in a friendly and fun setting. More advanced students will also learn some essential jazz standard repertoire, sometimes learning songs by ear. Occasionally students will break out into sectionals according to instrument, to work on various concepts the faculty wants to go more in depth on.
