The 2012 Jazz Education Network Conference this past January featured at least 30 presentations involving JSoM Jazz Studies faculty, students, and alumni.
One of the first and foremost jazz programs in the world, the Jazz Studies Program at the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music embodies the vision:
Honor the past, Shape the present, Imagine the future.
Our mission is to prepare students for professional careers and leadership roles in jazz and related fields of contemporary music by providing exceptional training that equips students with the flexible skills and experience required of successful, well-rounded musicians, and creative jazz artists. A wide variety of performance opportunities and a comprehensive curriculum ground our students in the rich history, traditions, and culture of jazz while nurturing their exploration of new and contemporary styles in an environment that encourages a free-flowing exchange of ideas between faculty, students, guest artists, and the community. Our faculty, students, and alumni serve as a resource for the Jacobs School of Music, university, state, national, and international communities through our world-class creative activities in performance, composition, education, and scholarship.
