The Berklee Jazz Workshop is made up of the best and brightest high school jazz players from around the world, who are studying at Berklee under acclaimed drummer Terri Lyne Carrington, artistic director of the new Summer Jazz Workshop during the college's Five-Week Summer Performance Program. Codirecting the ensemble is saxophonist Rick DiMuzio, associate professor of ear training. The ensemble will play standards as well as jazz arrangements by popular songwriters, and may feature original student compositions as well. A native of Medford, Massachusetts, Carrington received a full scholarship to Berklee at age 11. She later became the drummer for the Arsenio Hall Show, spent seven years on tour with Herbie Hancock, and was nominated for a Grammy Award. DiMuzio earned a doctorate at New England Conservatory and recently released his solo debut First Offerings.
