June 5- Jazz it Up! With Noteworthy Live Band
This workshop is an interactive jazz inspired program that explores varied styles and sub genres of jazz through fun activities for the participants. The goal is to develop an appreciation for jazz as an art form through listening to learn the appropriate moment(s) to engage/disengage, while also developing teamwork and unity through song. By showing how musicians relate to each other and communicate through the music, we are able to demonstrate how we develop our chemistry and present our collection of ideas to the listener.
