Interplay Jazz is a music and arts organization that has always been inclusive with regard to the age and experience level of each participant. In an effort to create a challenging and high-level environment for a few select students, our workshop in San Miguel requires that you be performing regularly in public and have at least a portion of your repertoire memorized. We will challenge you each day with concepts and techniques that will encourage you to reach for more. Our faculty will be there each day to support you while asking you to imagine yourself performing at you best.
