At New England Conservatory, jazz runs hot in young musicians' veins, with the blaze of individual creativity, the warmth of group interaction. Experimentation is encouraged. And that's cool!
This tradition goes back to 1969, when NEC launched the first fully accredited jazz studies program at a music conservatory. Our Contemporary Improvisation program has launched new sounds since 1974.
