CLARIFICATION ON IMPROVISATION & SIGHT-READING FOR JAZZ AUDITIONS
Improvisation and Sight-reading will be separate.
Sight-reading will be a separate selection.
Improvisation and sight-reading are two separate scores on the audition sheet.
Students may not read a prepared solo for improvisation - a clean copy will be provided for the audition.
Thanks for
you patience as we work through this new set of literature.
If your region has a
junior high jazz clinic,
check with your region chairman
to see which material is required for those auditions.
