Featured Composer - Jerrry Frazier

Jerry Frazier is a Texas born and raised musician. He received Masters and Bachelors degrees in music education from Texas Christian University in Fort Worth, Texas.  His public school teaching career in the central part of Texas included assignments at every level from kindergarten to grade 12. And, for a time Jerry also taught tuba at Texas Christian University.  Jerry has taught it all:  band, choir, jazz band,  music theory,  private lessons, and even elementary classroom music.

Through the years, Jerry taught in schools with limited physical resources, low budgets, one music teacher, and small band programs with incomplete instrumentation.  Early in his career, Jerry began writing compositions and arrangements that reflected the needs of each group.  His meticulous attention to part doubling, ranges and rhythmic pulse insured the success of his students.  Jerry received instant feedback on what students liked and disliked in his writing and he adapted his style to meet their needs.  His arrangements are designed to be learned quickly with maximum return for the time invested.
