Iowa Jazz Championships

Tuesday, April 8, 2014

The Iowa Jazz Championships showcases 60 of the state's finest high school jazz ensembles.  It is held in Des Moines every April and features 15 groups from each of the four Iowa high school classifications.  All ensembles perform in the daytime competition, and the top two bands from each classification perform in the evening finals competition.  The event was founded by Iowa jazz educators over thirty years ago and continues to be an important event on the Iowa high school music landscape each spring.

Musco Lighting of Oskaloosa is the official sponsor of the Iowa Jazz Championships, with additional support from the Iowa Music Educator's Association.
