Legacy Arts and Cultural Heritage

My goal is to spread the love of jazz through education, promotion and performance, and to create meaningful musical experiences for our listeners and performing artists. I expect to plant musical (jazz) seeds in each student that we work with, so they will begin or continue their study of jazz. I hope to provide every student’s family members and all concert goers with better awareness of jazz and more appreciation for Jazz Arts Big Bands.I will distribute a concert exit survey that asks for feedback regarding the A Journey Through Jazz project. Using a 1-5 rating scale, I will ask people: was this a high quality performance, rate the educational value you received, was this a good use of Minnesota’s Individual Artist's Arts and Cultural Heritage Grant monies, did you enjoy the concert and how likely is that you would attend another jazz band performance? I will ask the participating school's band director to evaluate project. I will ask the master class teachers about student progress and I will observe student level of master during the master class and improve workshop.
