Welcome to the CQ Schools’ Jazz Festival. Unique to the Central Queensland region, this event offers a variety of performance and developmental activities delivered in an encouraging, educational setting. Participants will have exposure to world-class professional musicians and educators through masterclasses, clinics and concert performances. 

Since 2012, participants in the CQSJF have benefitted from adjudicated performance recordings and voice-over adjudications, masterclass presentations, ensemble clinics and professional development sessions, delivered by world-class professional musicians and educators. Past performers and clinicians include: Jeff Jarvis (Dir. Jazz Studies, California State University Long Beach), Bob Coassin (ex. Buddy Rich Band), Jeremy Borthwick (Lecturer in Brass, University of Newcastle), John Morrison (Swing City Big Band), Andrew Robertson (saxophone/arranger & educator), Dan Barnett (trombonist/singer/educator), Dr Rob McWilliams (Education Outreach Clinician, Yamaha Music Australia), James Morrison (jazz icon), Greg Spence (Yamaha Artist & online education expert) and Dave Newdick (trumpet virtuoso)
​

After a hiatus in 2020 & 2021, CQCM are proud to return with a scaled-down festival, at our home at CQUniversity, Mackay. Finally, we would like to thank the teachers and young musicians who seize the opportunity to be involved in something truly unique to jazz education in regional Queensland. Each year, we look forward to hearing the talented students of this region with great enthusiasm.

Join us at CQSJF22 to enjoy the festival and all it has to offer!
