The Richard Michael Jazz Summer Course has a long-standing and highly experienced team of tutors, all of whom are renowned jazz performers and educators in their own right. The course director is award-winning jazz educator, Richard Michael, and the teaching staff are supported by an administrative and pastoral team, who also bring their own musical experience and love of jazz to their roles.
