Jazz and MAA
The Conservatoire de Jazz was founded in the early 60s.
Since then, its aim has been to develop an artistic education based on collective learning, which begins in the first year of Cycle 1. Collective learning is the very basis and essence of learning the different styles covered (Jazz, Latino, Rock, Funk, Pop, Soul, Reggae...). One-to-one tuition supports this group work and helps to develop instrumental technique.
Appropriate musical training is provided within the department.
Amateur practice by adults is particularly important, as it reinforces the pedagogical framework already in place, with adults demonstrating a high level of motivation and commitment, whether they are beginners or experienced players.
Enjoyment, exchange and sharing within the collective are an enriching source for the development of interpretation, improvisation and creation.
