Curriculum intended for middle to high school students
Every season, 1,000 aspiring jazz musicians in Miami-Dade County Public Schools get an in-depth look at the behind-the-scenes workings of a Jazz Roots concert at the Arsht Center. Throughout the program’s history, students have participated with jazz legends such as Chris Botti, Chucho Valdés, Candy Dulfer, Aaron Neville and the Dirty Dozen Brass Band, to name a few.
Jazz Roots Sound Check is sponsored by Baldwin Richardson Foods, and generously supported by PNC Bank, Quint Family Foundation, Hazel Rosen and Alan and Diane Lieberman.
