We are excited to have you join us at Drake University for a week of jazz immersion!

Harmon Fine Arts Center

COVID-19 UpdateUnfortunately, with the current events surrounding the spread of the COVID-19 virus, the Jazz Combo Workshop for 2020 has been canceled. We will begin plans for a Jazz Combo Workshop for the summer of 2021! 

Daily classes for students entering grades 9-12 will include improvisation, jazz theory, ear training, instrumental masterclasses, combo rehearsals and jam sessions with faculty. Final combo performances for friends, family and jazz enthusiasts will be held Friday evening at Noce Jazz and Cabaret, followed by a performance by the Nate Sparks Big Band. Cost of this premier Summer Jazz Workshop is $295. Please note, this is a commuter workshop; room and board are not offered. Except for the Friday evening performances, all classes will be held on the Drake University campus between 9 am and 5 pm. With exception of keyboards and vibraphones, students need to provide their own equipment. Guitarists and bass players need to bring an amp. Drummers must bring their own cymbals. Questions?
