Welcome to the Jazz All Star Blog! UPDATED TIMES

2014-2015 Jazz All Star
Audition Information

Hello Prospective Jazz All Star,

            My name is Mr. Myers and I am the conductor of this year’s 2014-2015 Jazz All Stars! If you are interested in auditioning for the Jazz All Star all the information you need is located right here in this audition packet, or jazzallstars.blogspot.com. This years auditions will be held at

NATIVITY of OUR LORD SCHOOL
585 W. Street Rd
Warminster, PA 18974
Sunday, November 16th @ 1:30pm

It is important that you arrive on time for the auditions and sign in at the registration tables so we know you have arrived. The audition is a blind audition, which means you will be judged solely on how well you perform the piece attached to this letter, not on previous years experience, or seniority. Please be prepared to play any or all sections attached to this form. The Jazz All Stars rehearse prior to most of the Honor Band rehearsals as well as a few extra dates listed below. If you intend on participating this year please plan on attending ALL rehearsals, it is crucial to the success of the band that everyone be present for rehearsals and concerts. Many of the shows we play are listed below but there will be a few additional shows in the spring at some of the local Jazz Festivals that will be announced as we schedule them however, I have included any dates we currently have scheduled below. I look forward to working with you this year, best of luck to all those auditioning!

Sincerely,
Mr. Myers
