Jazz Studies Instrumental:  Advanced technical skill on the chosen instrument; good improvisation skills as they relate to standard jazz literature.

Jazz Studies Voice: Please be prepared to present a mini-recital 25-30 minutes in length. (this will probably result in 5-6 selections)  Original arrangements or original tunes encouraged.  Demonstration of piano skills a plus.  Selections should be in contrasting jazz styles and tempos. (e.g. med. swing, fast swing, blues, ballad, bossa nova, samba, jazz waltz etc...) The addition of improvisation (scat singing) required for at least two tunes.  Bring sheet music or lead sheets in the keys in which you sing.  You may bring your own accompanist or one will be provided.  An interview will follow the audition.

 

The Department of Music reserves the right to require additional tests, performances, and/ or interviews deemed neccessary to fully evaluate any incoming student or to award Graduate Classification.
