CURRENT STUDENTS: The main educational & ensemble program for area music students in grades 8-12 will resume in November 2025 (when auditions take place) and December 2025 (when rehearsals start). Notices​​​​​​​​​ regarding the upcoming season will go out to area music educators and their music students in late August. We hope you will consider joining the VJC for its 10th anniversary season in 2025-26!
​​
​​EDUCATORS: Check out the Flexible Instrumentation Big Band charts from VJC Publications. And hear 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.
​
Please note that 100% of every VJC Publication purchase goes back into supporting the educational activities of the Valley Jazz Cooperative.
