Students of all musical backgrounds are encouraged to join. Whether you have only played classical music or grew up on pop and rock, everyone is welcome to come explore jazz.Please note: This course is open to adult instrumentalists who play melody and harmony instruments (other classes are available for drummers/percussionists and vocalists). Piano(s) and amplifiers for electric guitar/bass are provided. This course may be taken as a prerequisite to participation in a Jazz Combo.For more information please contact Contemporary Music Chair, Jeremy Castillo, JCastillo@levinemusic.org.
