Lake Mary High School invites you to be a part of our vibrant Jazz Combo – an ensemble where passion for jazz and musical exploration come alive. Perfect for students who seek a more intimate and collaborative jazz experience, our Jazz Combo is a haven for budding musicians and jazz enthusiasts alike.
Why Be a Part of Our Jazz Combo?
1. Open to All, No Audition Required
– Stepping into the world of jazz has never been easier at Lake Mary HS. Our Jazz Combo is accessible to all interested students, with no audition required. It’s an opportunity to dive into jazz without the pressure of a tryout.
2. Concurrent Enrollment in a Primary Ensemble
– To ensure a well-rounded musical education, members of the Jazz Combo must also be involved in a primary ensemble at Lake Mary High School. This dual participation fosters greater musical proficiency and a deeper understanding of different musical genres.
3. Emphasis on Music Literacy for Rhythm Section Players
– We encourage our Rhythm Section players to be adept at reading music. While being familiar with tablature is helpful, it’s the ability to read music that truly enhances the ensemble’s performance quality.
4. A Stage to Showcase Your Talent
– The Jazz Combo performs several concerts throughout the academic year, offering numerous opportunities to showcase your talent. These performances are a celebration of the group’s hard work and dedication to the art of jazz.
5. Spotlight Performance at FBA’s Jazz Band MPA
– Highlighting our annual calendar is the participation in the FBA’s Jazz Band Music Performance Assessment (MPA). This prestigious event is not just a performance but a testament to the skills and unity of our Jazz Combo.
