COVID-19 Safety Measures

Visit ShenCo Rising: Shenandoah Conservatory COVID-19 Reopening Plan for information regarding COVID-19 safety measures for all conservatory ensembles and productions.

The Jazz Combo program at Shenandoah Conservatory is designed to offer students experiences in small group settings, emphasizing improvisation and expanding repertoire. Each combo explores a variety of styles and composers, with a particular emphasis on bebop and hard bop. Other styles, such as cool, fusion, and Dixieland, are explored.

The combos perform throughout the semester on and off campus, at formal concerts, informal jazz forums and in area nightspots. Student arrangements and musical compositions are also an important part of the repertoire.
