Wynton Marsalis

Music Hall's Wynton Marsalis Jazz for Young People Program is taught as part of the Detroit Public Schools curriculum. We provide the schoolteachers with the platform and all necessary materials on the history of jazz, instruments, artist, past and present and musical styles for distribution in the classroom. Our program then continues to educate by providing onsite lectures demonstrations by local and international acclaimed jazz musicians.

Wynton Marsalis Perform! Program

In partnership with the City of Detroit, Music Hall brings Theatre Time, a year-round Camp Broadway program, and the Jazz for Young People program to select Detroit Recreation Centers Further more students who are nominated by their music instructors can qualify from master Jazz Clinics in the Hall by sitting down with the likes of Stanley Clark, Chick Corea and George Duke.

Perhaps most importantly and uniquely, Music Hall provide performance opportunities for our most elite students in the Jazz Cafe during intermission of our programs and time to time with full week long enhancement in our Rush Hour Series that takes place from 4:00pm - 7:00pm Monday through Friday.
