Show Band

Directed by Cornel Cata

In this class, students will perform in a large contemporary jazz ensemble.  Students will learn to apply professional music skills such as practice and rehearsal techniques, ensemble playing, music theory, arranging, improvising and scoring.  Students will become familiar with contemporary styles such as swing, rock, funk, Latin, and others.  The ensemble will perform three of-campus shows per year, as well as participating in judged music festivals and off campus performances.
