I’m teaching a new improv workshop these days called Keys to the Castle. I often present it with the help of Tatu Mianzi, our family trio.
As classical musicians, we spend hours and hours, years and years working on how to play our instruments well. Let’s not forget to enjoy how far we’ve come- let’s have some unbridled, in the moment fun with our instruments! This workshop is designed to explore various playing styles, from fiddle to jazz, and explore music that speaks to you, the artist.
Here’s what I’m finding: pre-teens want to fiddle, teens want to play music off the radio… and everybody loves improv. You know, once they get over the initial shock that “there is no music.”
If you see an advertisement for Keys to the Castle, sign up! We’re having loads of fun, and waiting for YOU to join us.
See you soon!
