Description

Join us for a dynamic 2-hour workshop focused on learning at least one jazz standard from start to finish. Whether you’re a beginner looking to build your repertoire or an experienced singer wanting to deepen your understanding, this session will guide you through the melody, chords, and improvisation techniques essential to mastering a tune.

By the end of the workshop, you’ll have a solid grasp of at least one jazz standard and the tools to apply the same process to others. There will even be an opportunity to learn a scat solo!

Come ready to play, listen, and explore the language of jazz in a supportive, hands-on environment.
