International Association of Jazz Educators IAJE News Randall Key, President, Alabama IAJE
We hope that you are having a good year and excit- ed about our upcoming conference.
The All State Jazz requirements are now online at
www.jazz.ua.edu.
The site address has changed
which is a little more user friendly. The web address given in the last Ala Breve is linked to the new address therefore there should be no discrepancy in finding the requirements. Please refer to the confer- ence schedule in this issue of the Ala Breve for reg- istration & rehearsal times. Chip Crotts from Jacksonville State University will be our guest jazz conductor. Chip is a great musician who understands how to teach and relate to young musicians. We would like to encourage each of you to come to the All State Jazz Band concert and support the students in this great achievement.
Also we want to extend a special invitation to each of you to attend the President's Reception Friday evening. The University of Alabama Jazz Ensemble, under the direction of Tom Wolfe, will be perform- ing at the reception along with the Directors Reading Band. The reading band is comprised of band and choral directors from around the state. There are no auditions - just two requirements: Bring your instru- ment and have fun!!! This is a great opportunity to read new jazz band charts, laugh, and fellowship with one another playing music. In order for this to be successful we need as much participation as pos- sible. There are many of us who enjoy playing but can't seem to find the time with our busy schedules. Now is the time. As you pack your bag for the con- ference, remember to bring your voices and instru- ments. I look forward to seeing each of you in Tuscaloosa!!!!!
