Participants are encouraged to participate in weekly jam sessions and perform live in a NYC jazz club! When you join the New York Jazz Workshop for one or more of their intensives, you can expect to become a member of a tightly knit community where musicians will be looking to learn, explore, and make connections that last a lifetime.
