Jazz Essentials Day
Run by Andy Crowdy, our one-day Jazz Essentials workshop is designed for people who would like to learn the foundations of playing and improvising jazz. This may be your first foray into the world of jazz or you may be well versed in playing, but have not improvised much. Come along for a fun day exploring how to tackle jazz and we hope it will give you lots of confidence if you are considering joining us for our summer workshop. The event will be limited to 10 attendees to make sure that you get the most out of your day.
Content
Topics covered will include:
Blues - learning a simple 12-bar Blues melody, a 5-note scale for improvising, and how to adjust the scale to fit the changing chords;

Improvisation - tips on how to create and develop improvised solos, making them more interesting and more fun!
