Ocoee High School | 1925 Ocoee Crown Point Pkwy | Ocoee, FL 34761
Join us at our free, non-competitive jazz clinic for middle and high school bands and individual students.
You and your jazz band students will learn from professional clinicians who emphasize individual creativity, team spirit and real-world experience. Includes clinician critique of performances, workshops and master classes. Clinicians will cover topics including improvisation, music theory, breaking into the music industry and what it takes to be a professional jazz musician.
Open to middle and high school jazz students. If you and your band cannot attend, individual students can attend themselves.
