Below you will find recordings of the music we are working on in class and any performance information that you will need to know.  We will rehearse Monday, Wednesday, and Friday during Flex.  You will be teacher requested to the band room but you can also sign up on your own.

The goal of this ensemble is to learn the main styles of jazz and how to begin playing jazz solos.  We will perform for MAMS Band Concerts and possibly with the MASH Jazz Ensemble in Spring.
