Jazz music is heavily based on improvisation, and the Jazz School will help each student to develop their understanding of HOW to improvise and speak the language of jazz authentically.

We learn about phrasing, note choices, each instruments’ roles, and many other aspects of Jazz.
If you are thinking of playing in one of our many jazz bands at the College, or are already in one, joining us will help you prepare for your audition and enhance your playing. There are 2 classes, beginner class and an intermediate class, we rotate between the two every week.
At least 2 years experience of playing an instrument is recommended.
