Jazz Studies
Jazz Master Classes
Master classes are an integral part of the course of study in each division in Oberlin Conservatory.
In master classes and music clinics, students receive hands-on instruction and guidance from acclaimed musicians to improve their technique, musicianship, improvisation skills, and stage presence. Select students also have the opportunity to perform alongside guest artists and artists in residence.
