STUDENTS & ALUMS: The main educational program of the VJC (grades 8-12) resumes with auditions in November and rehearsals beginning in December. As for the Alumni Band? Its next performance is the VJC Alumni Band+ Christmas Concert on 12/19/2026.
And stay tuned here—and on MSW & VJC social media platforms—for exciting news and updates regarding the next Director of the Valley Jazz Cooperative program and future directions for the program, as the VJC's 10th Anniversary Season continues!
EDUCATORS: Check out the Flexible Instrumentation Big Band charts from VJC Publications. And listen to this great new music on our YouTube channel. VJC Publications offers flex. charts without compromise, designed to sound great—and complete—with just the minimum instrumentation (11 pieces). And of course, they sound truly spectacular with a full, 18-piece big band. Given the unpredictable nature of band program size from year to year, VJC Publications represents a great investment for any music library. And 100% of every VJC Publication purchase goes back into supporting the educational activities of the Valley Jazz Cooperative.
