PJO is proud be be sponsoring the Philadelphia Jazz Orchestra Educational Program's 18th summer of jazz education for student musicians entering grades 6 through 12. For students in grades 4 through 7, we are also once again offering PJO Jazz Jump Start!
PJO Jazz Week offers an outstanding jazz educational experience including small group lessons/sectionals, jazz theory, improvisation, large ensemble rehearsals, jazz history, and occasionally clinicians/master classes.
This program is offered in two sessions. Each PJO Jazz Week session is independent of the other and is comprised of different music and different clinicians. Students may choose attend PJO Jazz Week Session #1, PJO Jazz Week Session #2, or both Sessions with a discounted price for the second session.
Tuition for PJO Jazz Week is only $650 for a single session or $1000 for both sessions.
