ILMEA Jazz Information

2021-22 ILMEA Jazz Auditions information will be posted here as it becomes available.
Please go to the ILMEA website to read all audition information.

Here is an email update from 9/24/21:

THIS IS THE ORDER IN WHICH THE SELECTIONS SHOULD BE RECORDED:

1. The D9 FINAL excerpts for "The S Is Silent" AND “Foo Birds of A Feather” are posted on the ILMEA website. Each instrument category has exact measure numbers to perform from each song.  Students need to record Excerpts IN ORDER. A, B, C, (D for vibes) Here is a direct link: https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5a8b48df32601edf3b51de66/t/614de147c922cd422dcbafcb/1632493896298/2021+Instrumental+Jazz+Audition+Material.pdf

2. For the "Great Love" etude, D9 students will perform the ENTIRE ETUDE WITH the attached mp3 accompaniment track.  Please remind your students to have the best audio mix possible so that they are heard clearly and the adjudicator can also hear the accompaniment track.

3. For "Billie’s Bounce", students will improvise two choruses - but do NOT need to play the melody. Students must use the accompaniment track provided on the ILMEA website.  Again, please guide your students to have the best audio mix possible so that they are heard clearly and the adjudicator can also hear the accompaniment track. All accompaniment tracks can be found on the ILMEA website: https://ilmea.org/instrumental-jazz-audition-resources
​

We encourage any interested student to prepare seriously and take the audition.  You must have the following prepared:
2021-22 ILMEA Jazz Audition requirements include:
All jazz auditions: Great Love, The "S" is Silent, and Foo Birds Of A Feather

Jazz Combo Must Also Prepare: Days of Wind and Roses, Softly as in a Morning Sunshine (Jamey Aebersold vol. 40), Song for My Father, Autumn Leaves (Aebersold vol. 54)
