National Youth Jazz Collective 2009/10

The Devon National Youth Jazz Collective workshops, managed by SWMS, were held over 4 weekends at Dartington Hall, Totnes. This was a new and exciting chance for young musicians to work with the best jazz professionals in the business throughout spring 2010.

Tutors for the course were; Issie Barratt, Pete Churchill, Steve Waterman, Andrew Bain, Mark Hodgson and Mick Foster – top musicians in the UK jazz scene.

Alongside this series of workshops for young musicians, SWMS also managed the National Youth Jazz Collective’s first continuing professional development course for jazz teachers and music leaders in the South West.

The National Youth Jazz Collective is a vibrant National Youth Music organisation funded by Youth Music and parented by the Foundation for Young Musicians.
