• SPARTAN JAZZ ENSEMBLE

    The Spartan Jazz Ensemble is made up of several students who are interested in exploring the jazz genre of music. Membership in the ensemble is open to all who wish to participate, and the group rehearses both during and after school. Students perform modern popular music as well as classic jazz charts, and have performed at school and community events. The Spartan Jazz Ensemble students also study music theory, and work in class to improve basic fundamentals of jazz music. The ensemble is comprised of wind and rhythm students ranging from 9th-12th grade, and are placed with a small placement audition for parts that usually rotate. The Jazz band is directed by Mr. Andrew Ellis and Mr. Chase Davidson.
