Jazz Band Sounds

Jazz Ensemble

The Jazz Ensemble will be returning to Revere this year! This ensemble meets Monday, Wednesday, and Friday mornings from 7:30 to 8:30. Membership is gained through audition and is open to all students enrolled in a band class during the school day. This instrumentation consist of trumpets, trombones, saxophones, guitars, bass guitars, drums, and piano. Auditions occur twice a year during August and January; however, students participating during the fall semester will have an advantage due to a full semester of rehearsal. The Jazz Ensemble will perform at school and community functions and compete in local area jazz festivals.
