Jazz Guitar Essentials Day
Run by Denny Ilett, this new class is designed for any rock, blues, classical or folk guitarists wishing to dip their toes into jazz harmony, rhythm and melody. If you have always wanted to have a go at jazz guitar or are a jazz guitar beginner and wish to improve your playing, this one is for you!
By gaining a grounding in these jazz essentials, sitting in on jam sessions or gigs will become easier. Along the way, you will get plenty of pro-level tips to improve fretboard knowledge, picking techniques, phrasing and general musicality.
