Join the BMCC Jazz Ensemble and meet other musically talented BMCC students.
The Jazz Ensemble works on a mix of standards and contemporary pieces. The group practices every week, and has public performances scheduled every year.
To Audition
Students should prepare two contrasting short songs to play. What is contrasting? One fast, one slow, one contemporary (new) song, one from a different era, different genres (jazz, latin, funk, etc). Students should also be able to play (or sing) a major scale and minor scale.
