Jazz - America’s Music
The Jazz – America’s Music program is a school concert that presents the music of the different eras and genres in jazz. Starting with the traditional jazz sounds of Louis Armstrong and playing through Duke Ellington, Bird and Diz, Miles, Brubeck, Jobim and Herbie Hancock, students learn about the artists and hear the music that has shaped this great art form. After presenting the school assembly, the performers work with the school’s band program in assisting the band director in honing the skills of the young musicians through instrument clinics, section and ensemble rehearsals, and master-classes on improvisation.
