informations relatives aux ateliers de musique organisés lors de la première semaine.
Description
During these sessions, we will cover several points that we consider essential for any improvising musician, regardless of their instrument or style:
Concepts of form, phrase, rhythm, phrasing... and how to integrate these parameters into an improvised musical discourse. (We have often observed that students have a better grasp of melody and harmony than of form and rhythm.)
Improvisation in its various forms: chord progressions, free improvisation, tempo and non-tempo, various meters, etc.
What repertoire and why?
Ear training and listening tips.
And also issues specific to the guitar: technique, real knowledge of the fretboard (melodically and harmonically), how to practice and explore one's instrument.
Level
This workshop is open to all musicians curious to expand their musical universe and their practice of improvisation.
Equipement
An acoustic guitar or an electric guitar with an amp (preferable for ensembles), spare strings. A Real Book might also be useful.
