The CCB-Jazz players are not professional musicians. Members work as accountants, teachers, journalists, and many other professions. Some are accomplished musicians who have played all their lives, others have rediscovered their instruments after years of neglect. The only requirements for membership are a reasonable proficiency on your instrument, ability to read music, and a desire to perform jazz and swing music.

The CCB-Jazz Ensemble provides it's members with the opportunity to:

  1. Play jazz and swing music in a big band setting.
  2. Maintain or develop skills in jazz ensemble performance.
  3. Maintain or develop jazz improvisation ability, if desired.
  4. Perform as an ensemble for community events and concerts.
