A-JAM Combo 2019 to Perform at JazzSAlive

For the first time ever, our A-JAM Jazz Mentorship combo is to perform at the prestigious JazzSAlive festival. That's this weekend, Friday and Saturday September 20 and 21 at Travis Park. This is a huge honor. Kudos to all involved!

Congrats to A-JAM alumni Fernando Munoz Jr., Liam Dixon, and their bandmates! And congratulations to their teacher mentors, Brian Christensen and Joe Caploe. See you there! #alamocolleges #jazz #mentorship #sanantonio #festival

Intercollegiate, intercultural, and intergenerational, the A-JAM mentorship program is open to music majors in any of San Antonio's five Alamo Colleges. Auditions are held each November. During the spring semester, A-JAM honorees perform locally and are coached by regional professionals and visiting artists. One lucky student is invited to the unique annual international jazz meeting of the International Association of Schools of jazz (IASJ) in June, where s/he performs with fellow students from all over the world for one intensive week. The meetings are held at a different host school each year. Singer Jeané Gaines, Northwest Vista College, participated in the IASJ meeting in São Paulo, Brazil in 2011 as the first A-JAM grand honor awardee. You could be next!
