"AUTUMN LEAVES" |
INTERMEDIATE |
These courses are aimed at musicians of all ages and will also
suit those who find it difficult to attend our courses
that include weekdays. The courses are themed focusing
on a particular jazz style or playing the music of a well-known
jazz artist.
The title Autumn Leaves gives an insight to a course which will focus on standard jazz songs. Often originating from musicals, films and other shows, these songs have been adopted by jazz musicians and have provided a substantial repertoire for the gigging jazz player, allowing musicians to instantly play and communicate music together without rehearsal. Your knowledge of standard tunes, and ability to improvise on them, will be improved through this course.
Glasgow is home to a vast number of arts centres and theatres,

restaurant and café bar. The Arches hosts a huge number of festivals
each year and has grown a reputation for supporting experimental
and non-mainstream art forms which including jazz.
