Information Summary

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY

DIRECTIONS TO THE PURDUE CAMPUS—Stewart Center

From Chicago, Fort Wayne, Indianapolis and South Bend:

Exit I-65 at Exit 172 and proceed west (toward Lafayette) on South Street. Proceed four miles to West Lafayette. (Be sure to follow the state Route 26 signs carefully. At the intersection with Main Street, state Route 26 will jog one block north and become Columbia Street.) When you cross the Wabash River you are in West Lafayette and are now on State Street. Proceed to the fifth traffic light and turn right on Memorial Drive. Stewart Center will be 1/2 block on your right.

From Champaign, Crawfordsville, St. Louis and Terre Haute:

Exit I-70 (Exit 41) or I-74 (Exit 34) on U.S. 231 North. When you cross the Wabash River, you are in West Lafayette. At the third light, turn left on State Street. At the Third traffic light, turn right on Memorial Drive. Stewart Center will be 1/2 block on your right.

Bus drivers should consult the Bus Parking instructions supplied by Purdue Police (in the e-packet) for detailed instructions on how to maneuver around the construction and the many new two-way streets around campus.

DIRECTIONS TO THE PURDUE CAMPUS—Pao Hall

FROM INTERSTATE 65: Exit Interstate 65 at Highway 43. Follow Highway 43 into West Lafayette. Turn right onto State Street at the light (there is a McDonald’s on the corner). Up the hill, you will pass through two stoplights. Right passed the second light, you will follow the curve to the left and proceed in the right-hand lane. Keep going straight passed the parking garage. Passed the curve to the left, you will proceed straight and immediately turn into the parking lot on your right. If traveling north on US 231: You will turn right onto Highway 43 and proceed with the directions above.

UNLOADING AND PARKING NEW! See attached and please make sure your bus driver has this information! Also, please note that we do not furnish a bus driver’s lounge, but there is plenty of lounge space in the basement of the Purdue Memorial Union with a Starbuck’s and other restaurants. FYI the parking garage behind Pao Hall between Marsteller and Sheetz has been demolished and that area is now a gravel parking lot. The most convenient parking garage is now the Grant Street garage (PGG) just across from the Union, be aware that it is a paid lot. Other Saturday only free parking lots close to PMU and Stewart Center include the Grant and Wood streets (PGGW) garage (south of State Street on Grant) and the Northwestern Street (PGNW) garage, which contains the Visitor Information Center.

CHECK-IN Directors must check in at the tables located in the lobby of Stewart Center or the Elliott Hall of Music Bands entrance (for those bands just performing there) upon arrival and turn in three copies of scores (scores are not required for non-competitive groups or combos) and four copies of the “Repertoire and Soloists” sheet. From registration, a Purdue student will escort you to your homeroom/storage area. A host will be assigned to guide you through your warm-up and performance. Your host will meet you in your homeroom area 30 minutes prior

Page 3: Purdue University’s Department of Ban ’s

to your warm-up time. . Pao Hall performers please refer to Pao Hall information concerning their check-in and bus parking.

CONTEST HEADQUARTERS The contest headquarters will be located in Stewart Center 109 C (East) Lounge. This area will be off-limits except to band directors and contest officials. Questions or problems that cannot be resolved at check-in will be handled here.

MUSIC SCORES and REPERTOIRE & SOLOISTS SHEETS If your band is competing for Honor Band status, you must provide three copies of your musical scores for the judges’ reference. Please have your measures numbered. Scores will be collected at the check-in point. Scores are optional for combos and non-competitive bands. Each performing group must have four copies of the REPERTOIRE & SOLOISTS sheet turned in at the registration table in order for students to be considered for any individual awards. Please make every effort to fill out these forms in a clear and legible manner as these will be used by our staff to get your awards to you in a timely fashion and will be used by our announcers at each venue.

PROVIDED EQUIPMENT & STORAGE Because of limited storage space, and to ensure that the festival runs efficiently, we are furnishing the following. (You are welcome to provide your own equipment instead, but the 30 minute total performance time including setup and tear-down will be strictly enforced.) DRUM SETS: Fully equipped 5-piece Blue System drum sets AND hardware --- BUT NO Cymbals this year! VIBES AND PIANO: Performance rooms will also be equipped with a set of vibes and a piano (in some cases an electronic keyboard instead of acoustic piano). Warm-up rooms will be equipped with a piano or keyboard w/amp and a bass amp. MUSIC STANDS: All Big Band performance rooms will be provided with 25 music stands for your use, the combo room will have 9. Warmup rooms will be provided with 20 music stands. We will provide chairs as needed, but if you need more music stands for your group than the numbers provided, you will be expected to bring those with you.

Not Provided: BECAUSE OF SUPPLY CHAIN ISSSUES Zildjian WILL NOT BE ABLE TO FURNISH CYMBALS AT

EACH VENUE SO WE ARE ASKING EACH GROUP TO BRING YOUR OWN CYMBALS – ALL HARDWARE WILL BE PROVIDED. Each Band will need to bring its own performance bass and guitar amps as well as cables/patch cords, and any other items not listed as “provided” above. Storage: Because of the large number of bands participating and our limited ‘homeroom’ space due to Purdue space management issues, we encourage you to move your equipment to your buses as soon as possible after your performance(s). However, if you have a late performance time and you desire supervised, secure storage of equipment after your performance until after the Final Concert, all equipment must be moved to the Stewart 214 before 5:00 or as soon after your performance as possible. All homeroom areas will be monitored by Purdue Jazz Festival workers, and your assigned area will be clearly marked. Students will not be allowed to “hang out” in the instrumental storage areas. Students are encouraged to use the coin lockers to store individual instruments. These lockers are free, however a quarter deposit is required for the key. (See Stewart and Union maps for locker locations)

WARM-UP The warm-up room for each performance hall is listed on the “Quick Room Guide” and on your building map. Each band will have approximately 22 minutes of warm-up time. A drum set and hardware (NO CYMBALS), bass amp, piano (or a quality electronic keyboard) will be available in each warm-up room – you must provide cymbals and all ¼” patch cords for guitar and bass. Your band’s performance amps may be placed at the doors of the performance hall prior to reporting to the warm-up room. Your host will assist you.

Page 4: Purdue University’s Department of Ban ’s

PERFORMANCE TIME

Each band will be allowed 30 minutes total time to set up, perform, and exit the stage. To ensure that we remain on a smooth schedule throughout the day, please bring 4 copies of the repertoire and soloist sheet to turn in at registration! A full 5 piece System Blue drum set (NO CYMBALS) with hardware, and a set of VIBES will be provided at each performance site. Stage workers will assist you in your microphone set-up. If you feel that you must use your own drum set and/or cymbals, then please realize that the 30 minute requirement for total onstage time will still apply- that will include moving the provided drum set and resetting it for the next band. Time permitting; one of the judges will conduct a short clinic on stage at the conclusion of your performance.

CLINICS Clinics will be presented throughout the day by many of the outstanding jazz musicians and educators appearing at the festival. We strongly encourage you to insist that your students take advantage of the opportunities available to them by attending and participating in these clinics. For your planning purposes, a clinic schedule is enclosed, but realize that it may change. All of the clinics will take place in the Sagamore Room area (PMU 231) on the third floor of the Purdue Memorial Union and on the Loeb Playhouse Stage. A clinic list is included in this e-packet. The definitive schedule for the day will be available at the registration table and will be in your entrance packet when you check in.

SATURDAY EVENING CONCERT Due to the number of bands participating in the festival, the Final Concert will begin at 7:00 pm and to help with audience spacing, it will be held in the Elliott Hall of Music. With the large number of seats in that auditorium everyone will be admitted --- no limits on tickets! The show will feature the Purdue Jazz Band with guest artists Mark Gross and Rex Richardson. Everyone will be admitted free of charge. The concert will last less than one and one half hours. Equipment may be left in the designated storage area (Stewart Center 214 or Elliott Room 15) during the evening concert. However, you may find it more convenient to store equipment on your bus.

TICKETS All events during the day Saturday are free and open to the public. The Friday evening Joshua Redman Trio concert requires a ticket purchased from Convocations (765) 496-2913 (email: [email protected]). The Saturday Noon concert featuring the Purdue Jazz Band with Sharel Cassity and appearances by Mark Fuller and Rex Richardson does not require a ticket. The Final Concert featuring the Purdue Jazz Band with Mark Fuller and Rex Richardson at 7 pm is free and open to the public in the Elliott Hall of Music.

AWARDS Trophies will be presented to the top three groups determined by total judges scoring from each performance venue, with the top group named as the Honor Band. The second highest point total will be awarded Outstanding Performance. A Judge’s Award will be awarded to the band with the third highest score, and outstanding individuals will be recognized from each site. Awards will be in the form of certificates, jazz camp scholarships, Aebersold play-a-longs, and small trophies. All individuals in any of the participating ensembles will be eligible for these awards. All awards will be announced and presented at the conclusion of the day at the Final Concert in Loeb and texted and emailed to all participating bands immediately following the concert.

ADJUDICATION and RATINGS All bands, competitive or not, will be fully adjudicated. We encourage the judges to give both written and recorded comments, but there are always some who give more of one than the other. Also, unless you requested a “non-competitive” category, each band will be given a rating by each judge. It is our hope that this will give you a clearer idea of how your band compared to the rest of the bands during the day. Total scores of 85-100 will be scored as I, 70-84 will be II, and below 70 as III. Attached is a sample adjudication form to let you know what the judges will be listening for. Audio recordings of the judge’s comments and video recording of your performance will be included on a USB ‘flash’ drive. That flash drive, along with adjudicators’ comment

Page 5: Purdue University’s Department of Ban ’s

sheets will be in the exit packets. Each director will be texted when their packets are ready to be picked up from the festival headquarters.

INSTRUMENT REPAIR The outstanding instrument repairman, Brent Laidler, of “Brent’s Bench” in Lafayette will have a table located in the foyer at the entrance to Fowler Hall in Stewart Center for emergency instrument repair and minor emergency equipment needs.

FOOD SERVICE It is a rule in the Purdue Memorial Union and Stewart Center that there is NO outside catering – if you bring in outside food, Purdue Bands will be assessed a large fine, which we will pass on to your band. Extensive food services are available on the bottom floor of the Purdue Memorial Union adjacent to Stewart Center as indicated on your building map. This area has been remodeled recently with new restaurants and facilities. There are also many other food establishments within walking distance to the performance areas.

__________________________________________________________________________________ Terry House 205 S. Martin Jischke Drive West Lafayette, IN 47907-1971 (765) 494-8221 Fax: (765) 494-0470 www.purdue.edu/police

Enclosed you will find a map outlining the bus parking/route for the Purdue Jazz Festival on January 22nd We are expecting approximately 70 plus buses/vans for that day. Because of construction and parking limitations we have changed the way we park buses. Please be patient with us as we make periodic changes as construction progresses in different areas. Please read the following carefully. Arriving for the show: Please be aware that the bike lanes west of Stewart Center are no longer available for use for vehicular traffic, parking, and/or staging. Therefore, you will be directed to unload in the bus pull-off in front of Stewart Center. Because of this change, you can now access Memorial Drive from either direction on State Street or Marsteller Street as turning radius is no longer an issue. Unloading: Unload your passengers in front of Stewart and quickly move to the designated bus parking instructed below. Please do not block the sidewalks cutting through the lane. Parking: Once you have unloaded please follow the route on the enclosed map. Follow Oval Drive around to State Street (SR26). Turn right and go WB on State Street. Travel approximately .3 miles and make a left turn on Martin Jischke Drive. Continue south on Martin Jischke Drive until you reach the roundabout, make the first right on Nimitz Drive. Continue on Nimitz Drive until you come to the stop sign. This is the intersection of Gates Drive. Make a left onto Gates drive and the gravel lot will be on your left. Please park in the gravel areas in the south half of the lot so as not to interfere with normal university operations that may be going on during the weekend. Loading: The process used to unload students will be the same procedure to pick them up. Buses will be loaded in front of Stewart Center. Our staff will be there to assist. When coming from the gravel lot for pick-up, use the following route. Leave the South Gravel Lot the same way you entered. When you exit the gravel lot, turn right onto Nimitz Drive. Continue into the roundabout and proceed to Harrison Street. Continue on Harrison St., you will cross over South Russell, South University, and Hort Drive. Make a left onto Marstellar St. Proceed across State St. onto Memorial Drive. Please follow same guidelines previously mentioned above for picking up students. Once again I ask you to stress to your drivers that they must be patient and follow the traffic pattern as stated above. If you have any questions, please contact PUPD at 765-494-8221. Thank you, Nick Crosby Sergeant of Administrative Services Purdue University Police Department

Pao Hall performance venue – Pao Hall of Visual and Performing Arts – 552 W. Wood Street

We are pleased to once again be able to use the beautiful Hansen Theater venue in the Yue-Kong Pao

Hall of Visual and Performing Arts on the Purdue campus this year! This is a beautiful, smaller hall that

will provide the performing Middle School/Jr. High bands and some of the Non-Competitive High School

bands with a full setup space with excellent acoustics in an outstanding jazz atmosphere! For more

information about this building and the facilities, here is a link

http://cla.purdue.edu/vpa/theatre/facilities/

Pao Hall is less than two blocks away from the Stewart Center registration area and the Memorial Union,

however we have made arrangements for bands performing there to check in at Pao rather than at

Stewart Center! As an added bonus, your bus parking will be in a lot located very close to that facility

(the lot is directly south of Dauch Alumni Center between Wood and Harrison on Grant). Because of

limited ‘homeroom’ space, we are encouraging bands to bring their equipment into the building as close

to their warm up time as possible and to try to get it back to the bus as soon as they can. It is important

that all equipment is out of Pao by 6:00 pm as the building will be locked by 6:30. As usual, there will

be helpful Purdue Band Students along with a Purdue Bands and Orchestras faculty member there to

greet you, provide you with more information, help alleviate your concerns and answer questions.

Directions: From I-65 South: Take Exit 178 (State Road 43). Turn right and follow to State Road 26 West

(State Street). Follow State Street past Grant Street intersection and then exit left onto Sheetz

Street/State Road 26 East. Proceed one block and turn right into the Pao Hall parking lot.

From I-65 North: Take Exit 172. Turn left onto State Road 26 West (State Street in West Lafayette) and

follow through Lafayette and across the Wabash River to West Lafayette. After Grant Street

intersection, exit left onto Sheetz Street/State Road 26 East. Proceed one block and turn right into the

Pao Hall parking lot.

Car Parking: We ask that you only park your bus in the bus lot, but there should plenty of car parking

space in the gravel lot that used to be the Marsteller Parking Garage right behind the building (on your

right as you approach Pao on Sheetz street). The reserved bus parking lot is just south of the Dauch

Alumni Center, across Sheetz from Pao but closer to Grant Street.

We are looking forward to your visit to the 2022 Purdue Jazz Festival and if you have any questions,

please feel free to contact me at [email protected]
