Schedule:

The ARC Summer Jazz Workshop is a one-day event that is open to all instrumental musicians from middle school to adult, interested in developing skills in the jazz idiom. Students will practice sight-reading skills in an ensemble setting throughout the day. Students will also attend a workshop on jazz improvisation and a master class on their instrument. Music educators wishing to develop a jazz band program in their school are welcome to observe and/or play in an ensemble. Warm-up and rehearsal techniques will be demonstrated along with ideas for teaching improvisation in the classroom. This exciting one-day event will include instructional materials, lunch and will conclude with a free public concert performance of all ensembles in the ARC Theatre at 4:00 PM.

American River College offers students a unique opportunity to enjoy intense study of the jazz idiom with an A.A. Degree in Jazz Studies. ARC is very fortunate to have such a program. Only a handful of two-year institutions offer jazz studies degrees in the nation. Our goal as faculty is to prepare students for the completion of the degree, assisting them in successful transfer to a four-year institution.

Latin Jazz Ensemble T, Th. 12:00-1:20 pmThe ARC Latin Jazz Ensemble performs various styles of the Latin Jazz/Afro-Cuban idiom. The ensemble performs regularly on campus and for the general public. Studio Jazz Ensemble T, Th. 1:30-2:50 pmThe Studio Jazz Ensemble focuses on a variety of styles in jazz. Along with their regular concerts at American River College, the ensemble has performed at the Reno Jazz Festival and CSU East Bay Jazz Festival. Recent guest artists have included saxophonists Jim Snidero, Ingred Jensen and Charles McPherson.

Chamber Jazz Ensemble T, Th. 3-4:20 pmChamber Jazz Ensemble explores the art of jazz combo performance and improvisation at all levels of ability. Combos perform on a regular basis on campus and for private functions.
