LRSmedia & IAJE
Return to Study Guides Overview & Directions
The partnership between LRSmedia and the International Association for Jazz Education, formed in 2004, focuses on music education initiatives. Working together toward the common goal of educating future generations on jazz and its legends, LRS and IAJE have co-produced custom complimentary study guides for LEGENDS OF JAZZ, and will create special programs for the tour in the fall of 2007 for music students and educators. This partnership has also helped financially support both partners’ individual endeavors; IAJE is a partial underwriter of LEGENDS OF JAZZ and LRSmedia supports IAJE’s Campaign for Jazz with revenue shares and discounts.
The mission of the International Association for Jazz Education is to assure the continued worldwide growth and development of jazz and jazz education. As a means of advancing its mission, International Association for Jazz Education initiates programs which nurture and promote the understanding and appreciation of jazz and its heritage, provide leadership to educators regarding curricula, aesthetics and performance; assists teachers and practitioners with information and resources; and takes an active part in organizing clinics, festivals and symposia at local, regional, national and international levels. International Association for Jazz Education also promotes the application of jazz principles in music materials and methods at all levels of education; communicates informational segments of the public including artists, educators, students, enthusiasts, the music industry and the general public; and encourages education which provides the knowledge, skills and materials vital to a career in jazz. Further, the International Association for Jazz Education encourages research, provides financial assistance, and advocates for jazz in all appropriate forums, thereby building a larger group of both audience and artists.
