Cambridge Jazz Festival: Schools Jazz Ensemble

As part of the Cambridge Jazz Festival’s commitment to supporting and promoting jazz in schools, three local school jazz orchestras will be taking the stage to showcase their considerable talents. This fresh and sparky, collaborative event is a chance for young musicians to kick off an exciting day of jazz at the Storey’s Field Centre, with arrangements of everything from standards to funk and ragtime to swing. Come and support musicians of the future as they make their mark on a day dedicated to big band and jazz ensembles. This year the schools big band workshop will be led by trombonist and educator Vij Prakash (The Brass Funkeys/NYJO).
