A quintet of PJCE musicians performs music by the 2022 cohort of Young Jazz Composers (YJC) mentees! Join us at The 1905 to hear original music by high school and college-age composers written with the guidance of professional composers and performers. The 2022 YJC band features Mary-Sue Tobin on saxophone, Pablo Rivarola on trumpet, Todd Marston on piano,Ben Medler on bass, and Tyson Stubelek on drums.

The Young Jazz Composers program is a mentorship and performance opportunity for students to learn the ins and outs of composing for a professional jazz ensemble. Through one-on-one private lessons with composers and feedback from ensembles of professional musicians, students gain valuable insight into the intricacies of composing over the course of a semester.
