All students interested in playing in Jazz I for the 2010-2011 school year must be placed by audition. Interested students need to contact Maralee Barela at the Leonard School of Music to be scheduled an audition time. Email Maralee.Barela@leonardschoolofmusic.com. If you are interested in participating in Jazz Combo, let Mrs. Barela know at that time.
