The All-City season begins in October and runs through May.

WELCOME!
​
On behalf of the Missoula All-City Program and our staff I would like to thank you for your interest and support of this wonderful program. The All-City Jazz Program and our student ensembles for middle school and high school musicians are here to help our wonderful educators and student musicians; bringing confidence, musical growth and student leadership to our community. Students in this program will have an opportunity to work with the region’s finest educators and musicians.
​
The mission of the Missoula All-City Jazz program is to provide additional improvisation and other creative experiences for instrumental students through jazz education. The musical and leadership skills gained can then be shared with his/her/their music program. These groups rehearse weekly and costs are very reasonable for this educational opportunity.
The All-City season begins in the fall and runs through May.
​
If you have any questions about the Missoula All-City program or would like to donate to this exceptional experience, please feel free to contact me at any time.
Thanks for your support of jazz education on our community.
Looking forward,
Rob
OUR MISSION
The mission of this program is to provide other opportunities in a creative environment for instrumental students through jazz instruction. The methods that are employed to help enrich the students will be improvisation, creative literature, masterclasses, workshops, and performances with nationally acclaimed musicians. The musical and leadership skills gained can then be shared with their own school programs. These groups will rehearse weekly and perform 2-3 times per academic year.​
