Groove, offbeat rhythms, spontaneous creativity... Jazz empowers you to shine as both a masterful soloist and an integral part of a cohesive musical collective. The quick thinking you cultivate as a jazz artist parallels your technical prowess on stage, your boldness in writing music, and your talent for musical arrangement.
As participants in Canada's pioneering university jazz program, Jazz Studies students enjoy exclusive access to dive deep into a century-old yet ever-progressing art form. Through jazz vocabulary, songwriting, and music theory courses, you'll master this genre while honoring its roots and shaping its future.
Nestled in Montreal's dynamic downtown - a cultural hub with strong jazz heritage - you'll experience countless chances to collaborate with fellow jazz scholars citywide. This thriving setting also offers abundant opportunities for impromptu sessions and witnessing world-class performances at local jazz venues.
