Jazz workshop
on: July 06, 2005, 07:07:43 PM
I'm teaching a special one-hour jazz workshop for my local music teacher's group, (BCRMTA), anyways, I was wondering

If you were going to a jazz workshop, What would you hope to have covered???? What would you really hope the instructor would not go into????

Thanks for your responses.

I'd like a list of good resources (books) that I could use with my students, with demonstrations/explanations of why you think they're good.

Also, how to teach beginning improv (specific exercises).

(I don't know what happened with the frowny faces there, but I'm actually quite happy right now!)
