JazzArts Charlotte begins its second season of the new Nuestro Tiempo Latin Jazz Youth Ensemble!
Led by renowned Latin Jazz educators, students will play repertoire in a Latin Jazz orchestra and learn fundamentals including clave rhythms, improvisational theory, Latin Jazz history and stage presence. This is a unique opportunity for student musicians grades 7-12 to study an exciting facet of jazz that combines the chords and improvisational techniques of traditional jazz with the Latin instruments and rhythms.
Woodwinds, Brass, Rhythm Section, and Percussion Players with a minimum 1 year on your instrument are encouraged to join.
Auditions will be held September 24. We are able to offer all accepted students a scholarship to cover the cost of participation.
