Focus of the Evening:
This masterclass is about rhythms, beats and patterns that most of us already are familiar with. We will learn how to decipher them, use them in context, and most importantly, learn how to fully enjoy and appreciate the power of rhythm. We will explore origin and history, rhythm migration and how some rhythms became the foundations and back bones of today's music such as jazz, blues, rock and funk.
This is a semi participatory clinic. No previous experience is necessary. Topics such as Fearless Playing and The joy of Playing will be discussed as well.
Claes Brondal is member of:
