The ARC Summer Jazz Workshop is a one-day event that is open to all instrumental musicians from middle school to adult, interested in developing skills in the jazz idiom. Students will practice sight-reading skills in an ensemble setting throughout the day. Students will also attend a workshop on jazz improvisation and a master class on their instrument.
Music educators wishing to develop a jazz band program in their school are welcome to observe and/or play in an ensemble. Warm-up and rehearsal techniques will be demonstrated along with ideas for teaching improvisation in the classroom.
This exciting one-day event will include instructional materials, lunch, and will conclude with a free public concert performance of all ensembles in the ARC Main Theatre at 4:00 PM.
General admission for this workshop is $45.
Parking for this event is $2.00 and can be found in the Myrtle West lot at the corner of Myrtle Avenue and College Oak Drive.
