Our popular Getting into College workshop returns this month, this time tailored specifically to jazz musicians on Tuesday, November 24 at 5:00 pm live on CYSO’s Facebook page! We heard from our jazz students that the orchestral Getting into College content wasn’t always applicable to the particulars of the jazz admissions process, so we’ve gathered jazz higher ed pros from across the country together for a conversation about the ins and outs of the college application process for young jazz players.
Jazz Orchestra Director Pharez Whitted will lead a panel including Juilliard’s Jerome Jennings, Peabody Institute and NYO Jazz’s Sean Jones, Frost School of Music’s Brian Lynch, and Northern Illinois University’s Reggie Thomas.
Hear what they look for in applicants and what you can be doing now to prepare your audition and application. Read the full bios of each panelist and RSVP on Facebook here.
