Jazz Ensemble is comprised of a select group of students who excel in instrumental music who are placed by audition.  Students will work with pieces of music that require an advanced level of musicianship and skill on their instrument.  Students study jazz harmony, style, and improvisation as they develop and improve their instrumental abilities, while also working together to produce cohesive and coherent music.  The course is held after school hours and students will receive 0.25 credits each year for their participation. Students must be enrolled in Concert Band, Symphonic Band, or Wind Symphony  in order to be eligible to audition for the QCHS Jazz Ensemble.
