The BC American Jazz Combo explores jazz standards that have become signature works by some of America’s most innovative and enduring composers within the jazz lexicon. Students will explore works by Ornette Coleman, Bill Evans, John Coltrane, Thelonius Monk, Chick Corea, Charles Mingus, and others. Students will develop their sight-reading, improvisation, interpretation, and arranging skills while building community through collaboration and expression. Additional exploration of Broadway and Film themes that have become classic additions to the jazz lexicon will be considered.
