Saltdean Jazz Band Needs You!

The Saltdean Jazz Band (SJB) has been set up for those who would like to take part in a fun and inclusive organisation aimed at getting people together to play music at all levels.

Maybe you have recently started learning and can already play a few tunes, or perhaps you played many years ago and would like to start up again. If so, you will be assured of a warm welcome at SJB, which meets at St Martin's Church, Longridge Avenue.

● No auditions – all levels of enthusiastic musicians will be welcome.

● Rehearsals in Saltdean on Thursday evenings 7:30 pm – 9:30 pm

● Help and support for nervous or new musicians ● Emphasis on having fun and bringing the community together through music – including supporting local events and charities with live performances. All levels of players are welcome, so if you play keyboard, trumpet, trombone, guitar, clarinet, sax, violin, harmonica, flute - or even just a triangle please get in touch. It doesn't matter if you haven't played for a while, are learning or are nervous, as we will welcome everyone. There are no scary auditions, so just come along and see what you think. There will be plenty of opportunities to learn as you go along.

The Music

Saltdean Jazz Band aims to be big and therefore play the music of the established big bands such as Count Basie, Glen Miller, Duke Ellington and much more. While we will feature jazz, blues and swing numbers, we will consider all music that suits the players' abilities, so we can build up a truly entertaining repertoire.
