Saxophonists Irwin Hall and Ben Wasserman The Princeton University Jazz Program, under the direction of Anthony D.J. Branker is dedicated to providing a much-needed educational forum for the study of the performance practices and rich cultural legacy of jazz. Students involved in jazz performance have numerous opportunities to concertize, participate in master classes, study privately, and to pursue independent projects. They also have the opportunity to participate in academic courses from the music department curriculum that encourage the study of the historical, social, theoretical, stylistic, and creative issues that pertain to the jazz idiom. In addition, the jazz program sponsors a number of outreach activities that are designed to enrich elementary, middle school, and high school students throughout the state, and the community at large.
