Thank you for your interest in the 2009 sessions of the Twin Cities Youth Jazz Camp. We are thrilled to be back again at F.A.I.R School in Crystal and very proud to announce our first year at the Colin Powell Youth Center in Minneapolis, in conjunction with our friends at Urban Ventures. This means we will be able to serve 170 students from all over the Twin Cities area in 2009.

A letter to the TCYJ Camp
Dear Bernie,

It is with the utmost pleasure that I write to you to sing the praises of your wonderful, week long jazz program in which my son, Max, participated.

You are the consummate director for such a program. You educated these students with skill, obvious experience, passion, and best of all, discipline.

Max came home everyday smiling and smarter about jazz music. The coaches were clearly enthusiastic and happy to be there.

You can count on Max's participation next year!

Warmly,

Manuel Leureano
Music Director for the Minnesota Youth Symphonies
