ABOUT TJYBF
The Trad Jazz Youth Band Festival (TJYBF) is an all-day festival dedicated
to
the performance and teaching of traditional jazz, with combo bands
performing
non-competitively. Every combo will receive feedback and lead-sheet clinics
following its performance. The festival also includes an optional Friday
evening
pre-festival hosted jam session, master classes, evening showcase concert,
lecture/demo, and admission to the next-day, STJS Jazz Sunday concert.

TJYBF is believed to be the only scholastic festival for Dixieland or
traditional jazz,
and is open to school bands, jazz club-sponsored bands, and independent
youth bands.

PUBLIC WELCOME! Anyone may purchase a festival pass to attend performances.
