Free improvisation workshop

The objective of this workshop is to introduce improvisation concepts to instrumentalists of all levels associated with jazz and popular music. Many times they have no contact with improvisation since the classical process does not teach it. These concepts are extremely important in the complete development of a musician. Developing safety, freedom when playing, and auditory perception. Additionally, players become more aware of their instrument and its capabilities.

 

Composition and directing workshop

This space will be designated to provide basic techniques for composing and performing new music. Playing with timbres, nuances, melodies and harmonies. Using the concept of creation in the moment. This awakens creativity, it will improve the ability to solve problems in the future. The direction is important to organize the ideas and have a concept of what the director is doing and what he wants from the ensemble.

This entire program has been carried out with the musical education of the OSIJB members in mind. It has been taken into account that there are many aspects of music that a musician must develop such as cognitive, psychological, motor and emotional skills. These skills are unique to music, so all youth should have access to it since no other area covers these important aspects of development in a systematic and practical way.
