Welcome to the North Carolina Music Educators Jazz Education Section!
Please join the state-wide NC Jazz ListServe.
The Jazz Education Section of NCMEA is comprised of the Eastern, Central, and Western Regions of North Carolina. Each region hosts a Jazz Music Performance Adjudication event as well as a regional Honors Jazz Clinic to help students experience and celebrate this truly American music across the state.
Every year, the section sponsors a middle school and high school All-State Jazz Ensemble comprised of some of the North Carolina’s most outstanding musicians, lead by some of the most respected performers and educators in the field.
Each year, professionals from secondary and post-secondary education work together to continue sharing this genre with our students.
This website is intended as an important resource for the instrumental directors of North Carolina. For more information on student events please choose your designated region at the top of the page.
