Best Answer

Different jazz band leaders/instructors will have different requirements, but you can bet any jazz band audition will have these two: Demonstrating good sight reading ability, and demonstrating good ability to improvise - especially the latter. Jazz is all about the ability to improvise.

When did jazz get to England?

Not exactly certain but some time in the 1920's. In that decade the ODJB, the popular white New Orleans band, did a tour in the U.K. As they were the first jazz band to record, it's likely that their records, that had had been released in the U.K., led to their being asked to tour. Subsequently, many jazz bands formed in the U.K. to play the "new" music.
