Jazz Band

The Haltom Jazz Band is made up of 9-12th grade students from our five concert ensembles. The group focuses on a variety of jazz styles including big band, swing, bebop, funk, and rock. Students are exposed to standards from 1900 to present time, while learning essential improvisational skills and music theory. Under the direction of Ben Donnell, the Jazz Ensemble performs year round at a variety of school and community events.
