CURRENT STUDENTS: With the passing of the final, in-person audition date (on Nov. 26th), we have now reached the end of the "open" audition period for 2024-25 VJC ensembles. However, the application & audition window will remain open only for instruments on which we still have need (within a particular group). Here are the slots that remain open for application/audition...
• VJC Indigo Big Band (Tuesday evenings at Ravenscroft):
No openings at this time.
​
• VJC Cerulean Combo (Thursday evenings at Ravenscroft):
No openings at this time.

​​EDUCATORS: Check out the Flexible Instrumentation Big Band charts from VJC Publications. And hear this great new music on our YouTube channel. VJC Publications offers flex. charts that don't compromise. These are exceptional investments for your ensemble library: Great charts to have during your program's robust years...and total lifesavers during the occasional lean years, too. Please give them a look and a listen!
​
All new 2024 VJCP releases are $5.00 off through the end of the JEN Conference in January 2025! As a reminder, 100% of each purchase goes back into supporting the educational activities of the Valley Jazz Cooperative.
