Event

This summer, Jazz Camp director Mitch Butler and distinguished clinicians provide insight and inspiration to student combos in a welcoming environment. Participants form lasting friendships as they delve deep into jazz in intensive combo rehearsals and coaching sessions. Daily masterclasses with Jazz Camp faculty, theory and improvisation classes and frequent faculty performances provide a well-rounded experience that touches on all aspects of jazz performance and history. Jazz Camp participants improve technical and improvisational skills, and aural acuity while studying the standards of the past and new, innovative literature. All instruments are welcome. The UMKC Jazz Camp concludes with a public performance by the student combos.

The Jazz Camp will take place in-person, June 20-24, 2021

Tuition includes all classes and scheduled events during the camp. Please note that this fee does not include meals or housing.

  • Early Bird Tuition: $340 (deadline May 10)
  • Standard Tuition: $370 (deadline June 7)
