Course content
The course offers wind players, drummers, pianists and guitarists the opportunity to play big band music in a large line-up and at a high level.
The repertoire consists of traditional big band music as well as pieces that the leaders arrange or compose especially for this band. Improvisation is an important element of the course. However, prior knowledge of improvisation is not a prerequisite for taking part. The style and sound spectrum of the big band is very broad and is an exciting mix of swing, jazz, Latin, pop, soul blues and rock.
Target audience
Experienced amateurs and enthusiastic professionals
Instruments: Alto sax, tenor sax, baritone sax, trumpet, trombone, bass trombone, guitar, piano, bass, drums
Participants
The course is held for a minimum of 15 participants.
