Jazz Studio
The HV CAMP Jazz Studio is a new unique educational experience that provides additional enrichment to musicians of different ages and proficiency. Although tailored to the adult members of our ensembles, anyone age 13 or older is welcome to register and join the studio.
The Jazz Studio is part master class, part music lab, part lecture and discussion, and part practicing and collaboration. Each meeting of the studio is created to foster a collegiate learning atmosphere without the repetition of a course that is taught the same way each semester.
