Sound Off: A Jazz Strings Presentation W/ Akua Dixon, Cello

Sound Off: Music for Bail presents award-winning cellist and pedagogue Akua Dixon in a highly-interactive hour-long presentation on jazz bowed string playing, technique, and repertoire directly building off of last month's presentation. Instruments will be needed, and Ms. Dixon will introduce concepts such as certain scales used in jazz harmony, bow technique, the blues form, swing feeling, and literature specifically for the jazz bowed string performer. We strongly encourage you to register early so the class can be better tailored to the group's level of experience!
