Basic Information

Description: This is an amateur, community, special interest chorus, open to the general public.

This ensemble is intended to give experience in vocal jazz ensemble singing to the less experienced jazz vocalist, and to open the door to the vocal jazz experience for those who wish to explore this exciting arena of performance. The students perform at each end of the quarter concert, and members often use this group experience to audition for the more complex arrangements of the Studio Singers and Vocal Flight. The auditions are held during the first week of the quarter. Rehearsals are T from 4:00-6:15 PM, W from 4:00-6:15 PM, and on Friday from 4:00-7:00 PM in the Choral Hall (A11). Directed by Roger Letson. You will find the De Anza Jazz Singers listed in the schedule of classes as: Music 27A, 27B, and 29.
