What El Paso Jazz Girls does
Mission
Our 6th year was our biggest year yet with 70 particiants! Participants (girls age 11 - 18) learned to compose, arrange, record, and perform their original music. We taught girls digital literacy skills, theory, ear training, and improvisation, as well as special topics that focused on mental health and gig economy. Our participants this year ranged from incoming 7th graders to recently graduated seniors, and were from 4 different local school districts. All our teaching artists are professional female musicians from Texas, giving students the opportunity to ask questions, see different opportunities, and know that a life in music is attainable as a girl from El Paso. This year girls performed their original music at a public concert to a packed house.
As stated on its FY2023 Form 990-EZ.

Germaine Franco an Oscar nominated film composer (Disney's Encanto and Coco) and El Paso native zoomed in a for a special talk about her career and composition process and invited girls to a private reception and screening of Encanto at the El Paso Film Festival in July - this was a highlight for the girls! We also had 3 junior teaching artists who were all a part of our inaugural 2018 program come back to teach this year! Some program highlights included the Composition Lab where girls started and developed song ideas with each other. Some of these songs were fully fleshed out in their combos for the final performance and other songs are seeds that they can take with them to develop later. Our special topics included the Power of Music a…
