Improvisational Musical Reflections –
Improv Music Class

June 14 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm, free

Shawn Tamborini leads a class on  improvising music in different genres and different methods. This class is for all types of musicians. Shawn talks and shows examples of different styles of improvisation, and also has class participation of these different styles. The class is part learning and part playing. So bring your musical instrument and improvise!
 
Here’s what Shawn has to say about improvisation:
 
“Musical improvisation can be full of mystery. This series is on musical improvisation in jazz, free music, blues, rock, rnb, folk…whatever! This class will look at rhythm and syncopation as well as dissect scale/mode application."
