THE 2006 JAZZ DIRECTORS
BIG
FAT BAND

...is comprised of jazz directors from the
participating schools. The title "FAT" has nothing to do with the girth of any individual member, or the collective girth of the ensemble, but rather has more to do with the size of the paychecks of these dedicated teachers. 

Music will be scanned and the links e-mailed to individual parts as soon as the music is selected. We will play two selections. Meet backstage with your music at 2:30 p.m. to take the stage as soon as the final high school groups clears.
