The second annual Jazz, Rags, and Blues Festival last season was a smashing success! We look forward to growing and developing this program in the 2024-2025 season.

This festival is an event to celebrate and discover the diverse subgenres of jazz. It takes place in a non-competitive recital setting, and students will be encouraged to introduce their piece and provide a short oral description of the piece’s history before performing. Both written and improvised pieces are encouraged.

All ages, instruments, and levels are welcome!
