For the students that auditioned and did not make a band, we do thank you very much for auditioning and encourage you to try again!!!  The competition was tough this semester.  In the meantime, take advantage of your resources and feel free to reach out to any Jazz Band 1 member for private lessons (they are very helpful and get your skills on point).  Please know that if you did not make a band, please remember to drop the course.  Otherwise you may get fined to drop it or have to pay for it if not addressed.  Hope this helps!
