J@MS (Jazz at the Music Settlement)- Cancelled

May 7, 2017 @ 2:00 PM - 4:30 PM

Due to an unseasonably cold forecast, this event has regrettably been cancelled. The dampness is not good for the instruments and the temperature is not conducive to a successful and fun outdoor concert.

The new date for the J@MS performance will be May 13th from 11a.m. to 2p.m. at the Music Settlement.

Thank you for your understanding!

Jazz at The Music Settlement (J@MS) is a nationally acclaimed Jazz immersion program for students ages 12-18.Students in the J@MS program develop their skills, knowledge, and experience to achieve musical goals. The program encompasses History of African-American Music, Theory and Improvisation, Small Combo, and Large Ensemble (Big Band). Students can register now for the 2017-18 school year, by clicking here!

The J@MS big bands explore a range of advanced and challenging material written for large ensembles under the direction of our professional faculty. These ensembles are often selected to perform in adjudicated events, workshops, concerts, and events throughout the year, gaining valuable performing experience in a high-level context. Top student musicians in the J@MS program comprise The Dameron Institute, named after Cleveland native Tadd Dameron, a notable 20th century American composer.

J@MS is proud to be a partner of The Berklee City Music Network. Throughout the duration of this widely acclaimed program, the Berklee City Music Network has generously given more than $110,000 in scholarship funds for students at The Music Settlement to attend the 5-week summer program. Our partnership with the Berklee City Music Network and the Berklee College of Music has yielded approximately $1.4 million in scholarship funds for students of The Music Settlement to attend the summer program and the college.

Can’t wait til May 7th to catch J@MS?! Neither can we!
Luckily we have a few links for you to see J@MS in action leading up to the event!
