Jazz Band
Congratulations to our Jazz Band and Mr. Crookston for receiving an overall Superior scores at Region Jazz Festival and qualifying for the State Jazz Festival.
If you are interested in trying out for Jazz Band 2020-21 year please email Mr. Crookston at microokston@dsdmail.net. You can find the audition material below and record your audition. Please PLAY ALONG with the audio file provided.
To send your audition please record yourself playing the audition and send the recording to microokston@dsdmail.net. It is recommended when sharing video files to save your recording someplace "cloud based" such as "OneDrive," "iCloud" or "Google Drive" and then simply email a shareable link. If doing this please check your settings that others have permission to view your link.
Except in rare cases, students are expected to be in a core band class to participate in the jazz band. We are trying something new this year and will accept Clarinets into the jazz band (just like the swing bands of old). They will double the Tenor Sax parts or sometimes trumpet parts.
