Big Band Júnior

Picture
A Big Band Júnior (BBJ) is a jazz orchestra composed by young musicians between 12 and 16 years old. 

It was founded in 2010 by Alexandra Ávila and me, within a partnership between the Centro Cultural de Belém and the Hot Clube de Portugal. 

The orchestra rehearses every week during school calendar and performs at the Centro Cultural de Belém, among other venues.

Artistic Direction: Alexandra Ávila & João Godinho
Pedagogical and Musical Direction: Clays Nymark
