The Villa Musica’s Jazz 101 Program is open to musicians who have intermediate to advanced proficiency on their instruments and a curiosity about improvisation in the jazz genre! Participants in this class will focus on building repertoire for performance, learning theory, and developing improvisation. By the end of this 10 week course each musician will have learned to improvise on blues, modal, and other standard jazz forms. This class will also participate in a showcase at the end of the semester.
No audition necessary.
