Bursaries and scholarships are also available for deserving students. For busy people, a “Day Camper” option has been created for those wishing to attend with a limited schedule.
The camp is designed to help students of all ages and skill levels gain instrumental/vocal experience in an environment of Encouragement and Fun. Students of ALL instruments can apply, particularly Vocalists, woodwinds, brass, strings, keyboard and guitarists, bassists, and drummers. The workshop will allow students to make music together in small and large ensembles and improve their knowledge and skills, including improvising and jamming with others.
Classes are offered in theory, arranging, songwriting, chording, vocalizing, historical perspectives, technology, and many unique areas of interest. We will divide by interests and abilities to create a stimulating program for all instruments. The interplay of combining musicians of all ages gives all a chance to learn from different perspectives. We offer a specialized program for vocalists, masterclasses, performances, jam sessions, and more. Play or sing in a band, meet other musicians, make music, and generally have fun - the evening concert series includes a nightly jam session with the pros!
U-JAM is a registered not-for-profit society founded in 2006 to support and encourage live music interactions in jazz and its many derivatives, including rock, blues, Latin, and other improvised musical styles.
