Jazz Ensembles

Jazz ensembles are formed for students of similar ages and levels, middle school, high school and adult. Students are placed in ensembles of four or more members according to schedules and levels of proficiency. Ensembles are scheduled throughout the week. Each session is one hour. Private study at WCM is not required. Class fee may be pro-rated depending on starting date. Permission of instructor required.
Since members of ensembles are part of a musicmaking team, participants are expected to attend all rehearsals so that everyone can have the best possible musical learning experience.
$360 | One hour per week | 15 weeks.
