E St. Jazz is the varsity vocal jazz choir, which is open by audition to students in grades 9-12.  All of the vocalists in E St. Jazz are members of one of our large choral ensembles. This ensemble rehearses after school two days a week. During the first semester, the ensemble sings on two department-sponsored concerts and gives several performances around the community during the holiday season.

During the second semester, the group will have selected performances at festivals around the region as well as District Music Contest, and the Bellevue East Pops Concert. Those festivals include the SWCC “Fox Fest” Vocal Jazz Festival, the NCDA Vocal Jazz Choir Festival, and the UNL Chamber Choir and Small Ensemble Festival. E St. is delighted to have been selected to participate in the Vocal Jazz Experience Day at the 2014 North Central –American Choral Directors Association Conference in Des Moines, IA. This group also performs in exhibition at our own annual Bellevue East Jazz Festival.
