National Youth Jazz Collective seeks hosts

The National Youth Jazz Collective (NYJC) is looking for five regional organisations to each host a series of four jazz weekends between 1 September 2008 and 1 April 2009.

Funded by Youth Music and currently parented by Birmingham Conservatoire, the NYJC is an exciting initiative designed to support the creative and educational needs of the young jazz musician through regional outreach projects and a national summer school in 2009.

The NYJC's commitment to the project will be to provide each regional host with a quartet of internationally renowned jazz musicians, who are also expert jazz educators. For more information on the initiative and hosting the jazz weekends visit http://www.nyjc.co.uk or contact admin@nyjc.co.uk.

Deadline: 23 July 2008
