What’s Included?

Class Schedule: Jacob Jazz Orchestra rehearses weekly on Monday evenings. Reheasals should start mid October.* You can view the class calendar here.

*Rehearsals will begin after YLJC ensemble classes start to allow time for Mr. Castellanos to invite students to the program.

Curriculum: Jacob Jazz Orchestra members are expected to practice their assignments at home and be ready to perform in class. Assignments range from learning new music, practicing their parts, transcribing solos, composing tunes, etc.
