Course Description
MUSED 496: Special Topics in Music Education
Centrum’s 2007 Jazz Workshop
This
Workshop offers participants the opportunity to rehearse, perform and
study with leading jazz artists. Emphasis is placed on developing and
refining rehearsal and performance skills, as well as developing as a
soloist, primarily within ensembles. Study in jazz theory, history,
and diverse ensembles is also made available to interested students.
Participants
will be evaluated based on their participation in ensembles and
classes, as well as a paper which discusses the skills, techniques and
concepts emphasized in the courses they follow. Topics could include: a
comparison of teaching methodologies and approaches observed during the
Workshop; a summary of the philosophies of the artist faculty in their
approach to jazz performance and instruction; or the application of the
content of the Workshop to the participant’s own skill level.
