The Jazz Band is open to all music students and uses instruments not common to the Symphonic/Concert Bands (guitar, bass guitar, drum set and piano). This ensemble will explore various styles of jazz that have influences of Big Band, Swing, Latin and a number of other influences. The jazz band will also consist of a smaller jazz combo that will perform with and without the use of the large ensemble. Rehearsals will be determined at the start of the school year.
