MAJE Jazz Clinician Program

This program offers MMEA member schools funds to bring in an expert jazz musician/educator into your school. For those who have had clinics at your schools, you have seen the profound effect these experiences can have on both students and teachers. It is the MAJE’s goal to promote these positive educational situations. We feel strongly that participation in the Jazz Clinician Program will result in more inspired
students, teachers, and communities!

The process for applying for these funds is simple. Simply fill out the Application Form  stating the needs
for your ensemble. MAJE has a long list of excellent musicians and educators that can address the specific needs of your group or program. Improvisation, ensemble skills, rhythm section skills, and stylistic performance are examples of clinic topics. Jazz education techniques for teachers can be addressed as well. Once the application is submitted and accepted, the MAJE will pair you with an appropriate clinician who will schedule a 2 hour clinic with you and your ensemble.
