The Jazz Orchestra, conducted by
Andy David, is open to all qualified students by audition, with consideration of the traditional instrumentation required for a large jazz ensemble.
This class is dedicated to the study of the music of the great jazz musicians such as Duke Ellington and Louis Armstrong. The music is very rewarding and challenges students to play outside their normal repertoire.
This band performs both on and off campus throughout the academic year. Opportunities to explore and to develop advanced abilities in jazz improvisation are also a major focus of the Jazz Orchestra.
