Our program has grown to 3 vocal Jazz ensembles. The music we perform represents a crossover of the Jazz and popular music idioms. The students in the KCKCC VJ program learn Jazz Education through a variety of methods. First of All, each of these students take private vocal Jazz coachings weekly. They also perform music by professional vocal ensembles, arrangements by well-known vocal Jazz educators, and learn Jazz and popular music standards (both through the ensemble and in private coachings).  less

Oakland based, East Bay born and bred, OJC brings original arrangements of traditional and contemporary vocal Jazz to the Bay Area & beyond. In addition OJC presents an interactive vocal Jazz workshop to the Oakland Public Schools. A blending of hearts and voices can have so much power. These voices unite to share in their common love of Jazz and to help promote the art form in new ways while respecting its cultural roots. OJC is funded mainly through its performances, grants and individual donations. Those dollars fund day-to-day operations, artistic and professional fees. But what keeps OJC’s collective heart beating most of All is the love of Jazz.  less
