Emory Jazz Studies students began the fall 2015 semester with the addition of a second studio classroom/rehearsal space. The new facility, known as Studio B will be used for combo rehearsals, percussion instruction and as an auxiliary recording suite. Studio B-which is adjacent to the Strickland Jazz Studio is connected to the master suite via a multi-channel patch bay, also allowing it to be used as an isolation room for recording and production. The new addition makes it possible for simultaneous rehearsals to occur and other program activities as needed.
