A photo journal of summer workshops 2011
We have had a busy summer this year! from Jazz to Ukulele to percussion!
Here is just a snapshot of what’s been going on.
Here Tim Steemson is guiding our budding Jazz musicians. As part of our Cool Jazz week of workshops we really had the guys scratching their heads by the end of the week!
Ian Allan (2nd from the left) gave our interested beginners their first taste of the ukulele. This was part of our lunch time taster week way back at the end of spring.
George Hutton and James Clark ran a fun afternoon of percussion activities before George teamed up with Tim Steemson for a full week of Percussion workshops.
Cool Jazz (Workshop)
Come and join Tim Knowles and Tim Steemson for a week of guided jazz improvisation sessions.
The Tims will take you through some well known jazz standards and help you develop those much needed improvisation skills. This class feeds into the regular monthly jazz nights at the Queen’s Hall Exchange Café so if you want to be able to join in and play in public then this is the place to start.
Monday August 22nd to Friday 26th August
10.00am – 2.00pm
