Jazz Camp

May 14 to Saturday night, May 17, 2008!

A learning and growing jazz experience for grown-ups: A combination JAZZ CAMP/JAZZ PARTY in a beautiful wooded lakeside setting of Northern Wisconsin.

A faculty of jazz professionals will teach instrumental/vocal master classes, improvisation, jazz listening (how to listen, and who to listen to, old and new), modern jazz combo playing (and perhaps big band), with concerts each night (open to the public) where advanced students sit in with the professionals. A major "perk" will be students hanging out with the faculty at meals, story sessions (i.e. about the big bands), and jam sessions.

Faculty this year is:
Kim Richmond on the Sax
Clay Jenkins on the Trumpet
Scott Whitfield on the Trombone
Lee Tomboulian on the Piano
Betty Tomboulian is Vocals
Jeff Cambell on the Bass
David Bayles on the Drums

You are invited to join us on Friday and Saturday evenings at 8:00 p.m. to listen to some great jazz performed by faculty and students.
