Students and Faculty
Stanford Jazz Workshop’s Jazz Camp and Residency programs provide the opportunity for students of all ages, abilities and backgrounds to receive personalized instruction from and interact with the finest jazz performers and educators in the country. Situated on the lush grounds of world-renowned Stanford University in the Braun Music Center, the Workshop is offered during three consecutive week-long summer sessions (Jazz Camp 1, Jazz Camp 2 and Jazz Residency). During the day, students participate in an intensive curriculum of jazz theory, musicianship and master classes, as well as receiving extensive hands-on experience playing with others in a jazz combo setting (in which they are placed based upon individual skill). At night, students are offered private lessons, as well as having the opportunity to augment their learning by attending concerts presented as part of the Stanford Jazz Festival from Sunday through Thursday.

All of the photos on this page were taken at our 2007 Jazz Camps & Residency programs, and are an illustration of the camaraderie and mutual admiration that develops between faculty and participants during their time together. Many of our students and faculty return year after year, attesting to the quality of the Stanford Jazz Workshop experience.
