The primary objective of the Choral Music Program at KCKCC is to educate the students and the community about vocal ensemble music through stylistic variety and tonal diversity, based on historical precedent. This objective is achieved by exposing choir members to music of different nationalities and/or cultures and their commitment to recreate a unique tone quality that identifies with the cultural environment of each composition.
 
The KCKCC Vocal Jazz Program takes pride in performing professional-level vocal jazz ensemble literature. The music within today’s program represents a crossover of the jazz and popular music idioms. The students in the Vocal Jazz program learn Jazz Education through a variety of methods. First of all, several of the students take private vocal jazz coachings 
weekly. They also perform music by professional vocal ensembles, arrangements by well-known vocal jazz educators, and learn jazz and popular music standards (both through the ensemble and within the private coachings). Lastly, 2/3 of the vocalists in our program are on full-tuition vocal music scholarship from the college (where they can be any major, but must participate in choir and applied voice).

Joe Stat is a scientist and musician living in Denver. Though primarily a drummer, he plays a number of other instruments rather badly. He's currently playing retro Jazz, Blues, and Latin tunes with a combo.

His turn ons include bebop, metal, upbeat folk, trance, eloquent rap, odd time signatures, and generally fun or groovy tunes. His turn offs include smooth jazz, pop country, dubstep, adult alternative, and artists who take themselves too seriously. His biggest strength is his excellent ear. His biggest weakness is that he can't play very fast. At all. Seriously.
