News from Drews

 

Congratulations to the 89 Lakota students who participated in our first ever Lakota Summer Jazz Clinic! What a great success! All of the directors were very impressed with the terrific achivements of the students in just 15 hours of practice together.

 

Please keep checking the website for the dates for next year clinic!


  • A huge thank you goes out to all of our parents and students for a terrific year in jazz!  So many wonderful contributions were made by so many people.  It is impossible to list everything that has been done for the benefit of the knowledge of jazz and the achievement of excellence.  Everyone should have a great sense of accomplishment!

  • Please don't forget to capture the memories of this year by getting copy of the BLACK ALBUM!  I truly believe that it is our best one yet.  Order forms are available by clicking HERE.

  • Lastly, please keep checking the website for information from our new Director of Jazz Studies, Mr. Carr.  We are all looking forward to his leadership in taking the jazz program to a new level of success.  Best wishes for a great summer!

 

ATTENTION Jazz Lovers! The 2007-2008 Lakota West Jazz album is in production! The BLACK ALBUM features some of our favorite charts from this year and we trust that you will enjoy the "studio" sound that Tri-State Productions gives us. Please click here for an order form. We hope to have the album ready for release much earlier this year. Please e-mail Mr. Mitchell (drews.mitchell@lakotaonline.com) with any questions.
