Week two will be July 29 - August 4, 2001. Students can attend just one week or both weeks. Read on to find out more information on the classes and special programs offered at the Jazz Camp. The program offers string players instruction in basic improvisation skills and other jazz techniques specific to their instruments. Our String Program is designed to bridge the gap between classical study and jazz techniques.
Vocalists receive instruction in jazz singing and improvisation within a small ensemble setting.
There will be 4 different levels of this class, from beginning to advanced. There will also be a special theory class for drummers. Students will learn by trying to repeat by ear what the instructor plays. Jazz Tradition Students receive an overview of jazz history. Our faculty will relate personal experiences with some of the leading artists in the music, perform live demonstrations, and take questions.
