Jazz Arts Academy Summer Session 2025

Our performance-based program offers Jazz ensemble (combos and big band), lessons in music theory and improvisation, and personalized instruction. Students gain insight and experience into the world of jazz by immersive, hands-on classes, workshops, and listening sessions. The faculty includes world-class working professional recording artists who are also dedicated educators: Brandon McCune, Zach Lorelli, and Joe Muccioli. Visiting artists also come to teach about melody, harmony, improvisation and the rich history of this great music.

For beginning jazz students, this session will introduce concepts of jazz melody, phrasing, harmony and the introductory basics of jazz improvisation. More advanced students will dive deeply into Jazz performance training. Topics covered will include ii-V-I vocabulary, substitutions, common scale patterns, advanced scales, and Jazz History. Each attendee will be placed in ensembles large or small (depending on enrollment) based on their ability and level. Listening sessions and performance training is integral to these intensive training sessions.
A special showcase concert will be held on Friday evening, August 1st, as part of the Summer Jazz Cafe series on the main stage at Triumph Restaurant in Red Bank, NJ
