For a number of years VCU has hosted a Jazz Composition Competition to recognize outstanding high school jazz composers. Thousands of dollars were awarded in prizes. The event was sponsored by Belwin Jazz, a division of Alfred Publishing Co.; Down Beat; Jamey Aebersold Jazz; Kendor Music; Kjos Music; and the VCU Jazz Students Fund.

For a variety of reasons, VCU Jazz has suspended the Competition for the foreseeable future. If you have any questions, contact Antonio García at ajgarcia@vcu.edu.
