Jazz Weekend Workshop

A whole weekend of listening to and playing jazz in the company of others who want to learn and improve their skills.

Building on the success of previous years, we are running another jazz weekend workshop, again with Stuart Finden & Fiona Finden, who are well-known in both jazz and folk circles. The two-day workshop will be an introduction to improvisation, exploring ideas both melodic and rhythmic in various styles. In a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, we'll learn (by ear or from music) a variety of tunes, and create chances to try out short (or longer if you prefer!) improvised solos in small group settings. We will explore jazz history too, listening to examples to give us some context. We will end up with a short performance at the end of the weekend to show off our new skills to each other!

All instrumentalists and vocalists welcome.
Booking essential. Ticket price £95.
