The 40th Annual Northwest College Jazz Festival is a non-competitive performance opportunity for vocal and instrumental jazz groups at all levels of proficiency. During the day, high-quality assessment and instruction will be provided by respected jazz educators in a positive and constructive learning environment which encourages young musicians and teachers to grow through camaraderie and musical exchange.
The day-long event culminates with a concert at 6:30 p.m. in the Nelson Performing Arts Auditorium. Along with the top student performers, this year’s concert also features internationally acclaimed a cappella ensemble, Accent.
