Jazz Ensemble

The Ethos Jazz Ensemble delves not only into many styles of traditional big band music (blues, swing, samba/latin, rock), but also focuses on improvisatory techniques for every instrument.  The Ethos Jazz Ensemble is open to public, private, and home school saxophone, trombone, trumpet, and rhythm section players from across Middle Tennessee.  Enriching what students learn in their school band class and from private lesson instructors, the Jazz Ensemble offers students the opportunity to play in an advanced big band setting, preparing music at an accelerated rate and learning from other talented students. 
For more information, contact Mr. Chandler at bchandler@ethosmusic.net.
