Learn How to Play Jazz
The Muskoka Saxophone Society will present its
annual seminar “Jazz Playing 101” on September 7, 2008 at the newly
remodelled Hideaway Pub, located at 11 Main Street in Huntsville. The
all day workshop is open to ALL instrumentalists and will be taught by
Doug Banwell. Doug is a recent émigré to Huntsville who played
professionally in Toronto throughout the 1990’s. He studied jazz
performance at Mohawk and York University. In addition to his many
activities in the local music scene, Doug launched the Muskoka Jazz Jam
this past winter, which takes place most Tuesday nights at the Hideaway
Pub. You can visit
www.muskokajazzjam.com to find out more about it.
Jazz Playing 101 will be a well-rounded
presentation of many of the aspects of playing jazz. Subjects include
the blues, how to read lead sheets (including jazz chords and harmony),
jazz history, how to learn tunes, practicing strategies, and more. There
will be lots of demonstrations and attendees are encouraged to take
part, so make sure to bring your instrument! Each attendee will receive
a free ‘how to get started’ kit. Whether you are a beginner or have had
some experience in the jazz genre, you will enjoy this day of fun and
learning.
Tickets are $30 for adults and $10 for students. The workshop starts at
10:00am and goes until 4:00pm, with a break for lunch. For tickets,
call Kim Barlow at (705) 789-8860. To find out more about the Muskoka
