The Lawrence Community Jazz Ensemble provides advancing high school musicians an opportunity to learn and perform in a traditional big band setting. Students will perform engaging jazz charts in an ensemble of motivated peers from across northeast Wisconsin. An eight-week session will culminate with a performance during the final class session.
Interested students (in particular but not limited to trumpet, trombone, saxophone, guitar, piano, bass, and drums) should submit an audition form and a performance video. Once accepted, students will be notified that they can register.
Returning students and students currently in the LCMS Wind Ensemble do not need to submit a performance video and can register directly.
Registration will remain open until all positions are filled.
Accepted students, returning students, and students currently enrolled in LCMS Wind Ensemble: complete the registration form.
