In this program, musicians are enabled to advance skills, connect with fellow musicians, and dive deeper into the world of jazz music.
Sessions are every Sunday beginning September 15, at 3pm, through December 15, held at The Count Basie Center for the Arts facility in Red Bank, NJ. Additional days or times may be posted depending upon enrollment. All students will perform in a final showcase concert alongside an invited guest artist near the end of the program.
