BMJazz Katz is a new project which aims to give young people the opportunity to play together in a big band.

It is open to those who play any instrument, including voice, to a ‘reasonable level’ for their age. With some flexibility, BMJAZZ KATZ is open to those aged 12 to 19 years.  Each BMJAZZ KATZ project will last for one year, with a brand new project starting the following year.  The 2023/24 programme will start with a workshop on Sunday 4th June 2023 (4pm to 6pm) and thereafter two per month.

It is accepted that some workshop dates will not work for everyone but Sunday 1st October will be an important one, as it will include a performance at the 2023 wall2wall jazz Festival!

The workshops will be run by three great young established musicians, overseen by Jack Mac, with guest tutors joining the programme during the year.

DATES:
Sunday 4th June, 4 – 6pm
Sunday 25th June, 4 – 6pm
Sunday 9th July, 4 – 6pm (followed by a performance)
Sunday 6th August, 4 – 6pm (followed by a performance)
