Chicago Academy for the Arts

  • Jazz Showcase 806 S Plymouth Ct Chicago United States (map)

Join us for a multi-generational musical event! This concert will feature Music Department students from the Chicago Academy for the Arts along with, and at times alongside, Academy faculty members. Under the direction of Academy Jazz Combo Director Gregory Dudzienski, high school jazz students will be joined by faculty members Callandra Youngleson, Sarah Clausen, Ethan Philion, Peter Schwendener, and Jonah Lazarus to perform jazz standards and modern tunes!

The Chicago Academy for the Arts is the nation’s premier performing and visual arts high school, where young artists master the skills necessary for academic success, critical thought, and creative expression. The Academy’s Music Department curriculum is rooted in the traditions of classical music and jazz while looking ahead to the potentials of commercial music and experimental composition. Students are immersed in: private study; musicianship and audio engineering courses; chamber, electronic, new music, and jazz ensembles; music composition; as well as masterclasses and performances.
