The Middle School Jazz Ensemble



The 07-08 Haverford Middle School Jazz Ensemble is under the direction of Mr. Mike Norton and is comprised of students in grades 6, 7 & 8 who qualify by audition. These students rehearse three times per week before school for 30 minutes. The emphasis with the ensemble is on performing a wide variety of styles with particular attention to developing jazz improvisation skills. The group has received many awards and honors over the years one of the highlights being a performance for the Music Educators All-Eastern conference in Baltimore, Maryland in 1997.

Auditions are held each year in early October. Students must prepare an audition piece that is supplied by the director. Regular rehearsals begin in late October.
