DESCRIPTION:Week 1 of a 10 week course
 Learn and develop Jazz Improvisation techniques and style at Band on the Wall.
 The course is for players (all instruments) and singers who want to learn the art and fundamental techniques of Jazz Improvisation in a practical\, structured and progressive course. Starting at beginner and intermediate level participants will explore easy ways into soloing\, develop rhythmic improvisation skills and aural confidence. The sessions are run in groups and will be practical\, supportive non-formal and relaxed!
 The course is for players&nbsp\;who have the basic skills (approximately equivalent to grade 3 and up) on their instrument\, which could be anything from brass\, wind\, strings or voice. Reading skills are not required (though they may be helpful).
 More experienced players with some jazz improvisation skills will develop their timing\, jazz language\, phrasing and style with more complex harmonies including cycle of fourths and simple turnarounds\, more challenging keys and faster tempos.
