Jazz Jam Tea Party
Sundays, 2-4pm
Service Description
This will be a progressive and instructional workshop, geared toward my students in private lessons to give them a chance to play with a live rhythm section. Each meetup will have a set list of songs we will work on. Students should try to prepared the melody in advance so they aren't sight-reading, but they will be coached on how to improve their improvisation and given tips for improvisation before going on to jam. Schedule is as follows: 11.17 - Bb Blues Scale Focus - Sonnymoon for Two, Blue Monk, Straight No Chaser, and for more advanced students, Anthropology at a moderate tempo (don't worry, I'm not expecting bebop tempos on the first day). 1.12 - Review Bb Blues tunes above, add Latin Tunes in Am/C. Black Orpheus, Corcovado, Agua De Beber, Never Trust Your Heart, Besame Mucho, and Recorda-Me. 2.09 - Review Previous tunes - add in tunes in Cm/Eb - Blue Bossa, Chitlins Con Carne, Stolen Moments, and Four. 3.16 - Review Previous tunes - add in ballads - How Insensitive, In a Sentimental Mood, But Beautiful, Bewitched, and Body and Soul. 4.13 - Review everything we've learned with a Q & A to make sure questions are answered - choose your favorite songs to perform memorized and invite family members to watch.
