Come experience the results of a remarkable jazz intensive! The VYJO program is a unique music residency for Metro Vancouver high school students, co-presented by Coastal Jazz, the Vancouver Jazz Orchestra, and Vancouver Community College. Through five weeks of rehearsals, the teens cultivate their talents through mentorship from members of the VJO, including Vancouver Youth Jazz Orchestra bandleader (and trumpet mentor) Bill Clark, VJO artistic director James Danderfer, trombone mentor Casey Thomas-Burns, sax mentor Brent Mah, and rhythm section mentor Sharon Minemoto.
