What you will learn

Students will build the foundational skills of jazz singing — steady rhythm, pitch matching, active listening, and simple improvisation — while learning to blend their voices in a small ensemble and discovering the fun of scatting and jazz standards written for young voices.

JAZZ VOCAL FOUNDATIONS

Build pitch matching, breath support, rhythm, and healthy singing technique through playful jazz-based vocal exercises.

GROUP SINGING & CALL-AND-RESPONSE

Learn to listen, blend, and answer each other's voices — the same call-and-response tradition at the heart of jazz singing.

Performance & Improvisation

These jazz singing classes for kids end each semester with a chance to perform simple melodic improvisation and favorite jazz standards written for young voices, giving students real confidence on stage.

We offer Need-based financial assistance & payment plans

Our goal is to make music education accessible and to remove the financial barrier that may prevent students from participating. Therefore, we offer need-based financial aid to as many students as possible.
