The American Jazz Museum is proud to present the Kansas City Jazz Academy. This program provides excellent jazz instruction for middle and high school students interested in improving their skills beyond what they’d normally receive in a traditional public/private school music program. Its instrumental, piano and vocal classes are lead by a faculty of esteemed artist and educators with a focus on style, history, theory, ear training, song forms, repertoire, and musicianship. Additional clinics and masterclasses are presented by national and international jazz musicians and educators.
This registration is for the Summer Semester starting June 4th at 12:00 pm inside the Gem Theater. Sessions conclude with this year's Summer Showcase, scheduled for Saturday, July 23rd. Once your student has registered, you will receive more information from Clarence Smith, Manager of the Kansas City Jazz Academy.
