Michael Holden (Mike) mholden2646@charter.net Announcement Dear Colleagues, The MTSU School of Music is hosting the MTSU Jazz Festival on Saturday, April 14, 2007. This annual event brings together outstanding jazz artists, jazz educators, students, and jazz lovers for a full day of performances and educational activities. We invite your school to participate in this non-competitive festival that will be highlighted by a clinic and concert by world renowned trumpeter Snooky Young. School groups will be given 30 minutes for their performance followed by a “one-on-one” workshop by one of our visiting clinicians designed to help the students expand and improve their jazz skills. Each group will receive audio taped comments from two clinicians and a video tape of their performance. Our clinicians this year include Clay Jenkins of the Eastman School of Music, Don Aliquo & Jamey Simmons from MTSU and Tom Giampietro (Vanderbilt University & MTSU.) In addition to the 1:00 pm clinic by Snooky Young, Director of Jazz Studies Don Aliquo and Professor of Jazz Studies Jamey Simmons will conduct a "hands-on" workshop on Jazz Improvisation. We encourage all students to take advantage of this great opportunity. The festival will begin at 9:00 am with performances by high school jazz ensembles running at thirty minute intervals throughout the day. The evening concert, featuring Snooky Young with the MTSU Jazz Ensemble I, is scheduled for 7:30 pm. The registration fee for the festival is $150 per ensemble which
includes tickets to the evening performance for all students in the
group and the director. These tickets would otherwise cost $12.00 per
person. If you are interested in participating in the MTSU Jazz
Festival, please call (615) 904-8362 or e-mail
