Welcome to TISJA! - The Words from the Directors

To all the Jazz educator colleagues, peers and students all over the world:

I am proudly present you the largest summer jazz camp in Asia - TISJA again for the 12th year! We call it magic, because it's totally an independent but successful music educational program in Taiwan, and it does helped hundreds of jazz sensations not only from Taiwan, but also from Hong Kong, Macau, Mainland China, Malaysia, Singapore, Japan, Korea, USA, UK, Thailand...to search their own voice and pursue their career.

Please recommend this wonderful and Intensive TIJEPA event to your students, friends and even professional musicians, music student around, the date will be from July 13 to 19, and the international faculty included many noted jazz masters and veteran educators from USA, Belgium, Italy, Germany, South Africa, Canada and Taiwan!

We've collaborated with several prestige Jazz schools in Japan such as Koyo Conservatory and Senzoku College of Music, as well as the JAMD in Israel, this year we welcome UCT (University of Cape Town) in South Africa to join us, not only sending outstanding students to there as short-term study, every year we invite several guest faculty from these schools to make the TISJA even much fruitful!

Please share this and submit soon because the room is occupied very soon each year, the newest official site will be launched in 2 days, then there will be more further details for you.

Thank you and see you soon!
