Jazz Band

The Jazz Band is comprised of a big, full-instrument band of approximately 25 students. The band performs literature representative of a wide variety of musical genres, including swing, Latin, rock, and funk, to name a few. Students are encouraged and coached in their abilities to improvise solos on their given instrument, as well as the ability to function as a valued member within this selective, one-on-a-part ensemble setting. Each semester, this ensemble performs at various jazz festivals, school events, and civic functions throughout the greater community. For information on having the Jazz Band perform for your event, please contact Mr. Krumbine
