Schools of Cool: Jazz Performance Education Providing a Different Kind of Gig.
Overview & Synopsis
Currently, about 200 colleges and universities offer programs in jazz performance. Although many are in conservatories, the majority reside in college and university music departments. This development reflects a changing jazz infrastructure, formerly centered in local bands but increasingly based in a network of higher education institutions, and the growing conviction that jazz can be taught in academic settings.
