Open to students of any level and any instrument including wind instruments and voice. We will have an eye to showing the crossover opportunities that exist between this week’s musical genres. Play your instrument either in the foreground or the background and seal some of the day’s learning into your brain. And just for fun! If you have a wind instrument, please bring it - and dancing is encouraged! We will introduce songs with a chord chart everybody can see. Everyone who is willing will have a chance to solo or sing/scat. You also may introduce songs, but plan to specify the key and provide guidance with chords.

Our objectives are to:

  1. Show you songs with classic or all-purpose changes that will add to your bag of tricks.
  2. Give you the chance to practice chord shapes/progressions/rhythm.
  3. Give you chances to solo, although it’s OK to be shy.
  4. Expand your repertoire by introducing tunes you might not know.
  5. Get to know other players you can informally jam with
