Jazz/Ed Jury Requirements

The standing requisite for all jazz majors to prepare ten jury selections has been updated only to require five (5) jury selections. This update only applies to Jazz/Ed majors. All other jury policies remain unchanged.

Jazz/Ed jury tune selection requirements:

• Three (3) Tune List selections
• One (1) Mingus selections, and
• One (1) optional “Wildcard” selection from a well-known jazz composer consistent with our tune list repertoire. The juror must supply jury trio musicians (piano/guitar, bass, drums) with a basic lead sheet of their “Wildcard” selection to be sight-read; no time is afforded to rehearse; it must be immediately playable. Another standard tune from the Tune List can also replace the wildcard option for a total of ten (5) tunes.

Please continue to work with your private lesson instructors to prepare as needed.
