Mead High School – Instrumental Jazz Ensemble

Apr 2026 · 2nd Semester

Emphasis is placed on the development of technique and skill necessary to the performance of classic and contemporary big band/combo literature. This is a performance-based class and the 'team' concept is of utmost importance. As such, attendance is required for all events that involve jazz band students. Most of these events take place outside the school day. Students must be able to commit to this course for a complete school year. Students will be required to adhere to a code of conduct. This class will contain fees and will include overnight travel to festivals and performances.
