Classes run from 8:45 am to 3:45 pm each day.
Location: Archbishop Mitty High School, 5000 Mitty Way, San Jose, CA 95129 (map)
The camp is for students 12-18 years old - 6th through 12th grade.
Students receive two weeks of intense jazz music instruction and playing in various areas of jazz: theory, small ensemble, big band, master classes, instrument-specific instruction, arranging, and other areas.
Skill level: Students should have basic playing knowledge on their instruments. This is not a class for people who have never played before.
There's an opportunity for jazz supporters to contribute to the Jazz Camp Scholarship Fund. Last year of 110 students at Camp, 40 received scholarship support. Invest in the future of Jazz--call Madelyn Crawford, 408-288-7557 x2335 to contribute. All contributions to the Scholarship Fund are fully tax deductible. Funders will be recognized at the Camp, in the San Jose Jazz newsletter and in the Festival program.
