· Texas Jazz & Blues Camp began in 2016, and is an all-embracing program focused on musical and personal growth where our students can learn by hearing the greats on our staff and each other. While the commitment to the music is at the highest level, the program is not competitive. There is no pre-audition required.
Our Music Director is jazz sax great, Don Braden, who also directs the Litchfield Jazz Camp & Festival in Connecticut (one of the oldest and largest on the east coast). The camp is hosted on the beautiful campus of Stephen’s Episcopal School in Austin. Our day & future residential camp at SSES features world-class performers & instructors.
