The jazz program at WAAPA has long been recognised as<br />
one of the strongest in the southern hemisphere, producing<br />
many nationally and <strong>international</strong>ly renowned jazz musicians.<br />
The strength of the program lies in the focus on performance<br />
outcomes, hence all educational units are based around<br />
developing these skills. Throughout the year all students<br />
participate in many varied ensembles, from big bands to jazz trios<br />
and everything in between. In third year, students have the option<br />
of pursuing a performance or arranging stream culminating in<br />
a professional recital. The jazz <strong>course</strong> has an exceptional visiting<br />
artist program and prides itself on the depth of professional<br />
knowledge that is on offer to students year round.<br />
Special Admission Requirements<br />
