Jazz Band
The Jazz Band is one of the top performing groups at Burlington High School. The band's curriculum exposes students to various styles of music within the jazz idiom, such as swing, bebop, latin, funk, rock, and contemporary compositions. The group follows a course of study that includes jazz history, theory, and improvisation skills. Jazz Band also works with active jazz clinicians who are able to bring a new perspective of performance, interpretation, and jazz history to the group.
Jazz Band rehearses after school throughout the course of the year, and performs at several concerts, including formal Winter/Festival/Spring Concerts and various school-wide performances. For the past three years, the Jazz Band has participated in the MAJE (Massachusetts Association for Jazz Education) Northeastern District Senior Festival; the Jazz Band received a 'Silver' medal at the 2020 Festival.
