Jazz Ensemble 2012-13 results are up!!

To all students who auditioned this year for the 2012-13 jazz ensemble,

Thank you for being so well prepared and having patience through the audition. The decision making process was quite difficult due to the quality of your preparations.  The following list below consists of the 2012-13 personnel for the Jazz Ensemble.  Our first rehearsal will be 6:30PM to 8:30PM 9/11/12.  All members are reminded that this group is a serious commitment from Sept. through June with approximately 8-12 performances that may or may not fall on a Tuesday.  We will also be involved in fundraising projects. 
I am looking forward to an exciting year with you and our new band.
