Three successive workshops aimed at players of melody instruments as well as singers also playing such an instrument.
It is possible to join the course in workshops #2 and #3, if the participant is moderately skilled in basic improvisation.
In order to benefit from the workshop, several years of playing (not improvising) experience is required,
as well as basic familiarity with chords (triads and tetrachords) and major and minor scales with at least two accidentals.
Contents of this course cover the building of tetra- and other elaborate chords , scales and tonal sequences,
the developing of improvisations and suspense over typical chord changes and cadences, as well as the studying of reference repertoire.
