Education

ELEMENTARY, MIDDLE & HIGH SCHOOL JAZZ CHOIRS & JAZZ BANDS

Made possible by a collaborative partnership with Edmonds Community College, our jazz festival is one of the oldest and largest of its kind.

Nearly 40 elementary, middle and high school jazz choirs and jazz bands attend workshops and perform for one another in a non-competitive environment on the campus of Edmonds Community College.

Our guest artists and some of the nation’s best music educators provide motivational educational experiences that are life-changing to student participants and their educators.

REGISTER YOUR ENSEMBLE

Elementary, Middle and High School Jazz Choirs and Jazz Bands should contact Kirk Marcy to register.

College, University and Community Ensembles should contact Frank DeMiero to register.
