WHERE'S ART?
Art Lande's Concert Itinerary

Art Lande teaching at The Jazz School
2087 Addison St, Berkeley, CA (Addison and Shattuck).

Wednesdays, 6:30 - 8:00PM   Jam Session Skills for Vocalists Jazz vocalists often develop the skills and experience to feel comfortable directing an accompanist or trio, but don’t feel as confident working in less formal settings with instrumentalists . This course covers a range of essential exercises designed to help singers feel more comfortable working with instrumentalists, including: learning to sing tunes in original keys through octave trans- position, improving sight-singing and ear skills to be able to participate in the performance of unfamiliar tunes, learning to solo on any chord changes, and learning to create accompaniments.

Wednesdays, 8:15 - 9:45PM   Post-Bop Innovators of the Late 60s and Early 70s This ensemble, taught by visiting faculty member Art Lande, focuses on the music of great composer/performers with strong Bay Area ties including Bobby Hutcherson, Woody Shaw, Andrew Hill, and Joe Henderson — all musicians Art played with in the 1970s . Students work on music in solo, duo, trio, and larger formats depending on the instrumentation in the class and learn about the melodic, harmonic, and rhythmic implications and language of this era . For intermediate and advanced musicians with some skills in reading and theory knowledge.

These classes are offered by The Jazz School and meet every week. To enroll, please visit their catalog and enroll online.
