Ameropa's New Program
"Jazz / Classics / Improvisation"
Prague, July 21 - August 4, 2019
The jazz/classical/improvising music program is a new program of Ameropa that has only been implemented since this year. For this program we will set up independent courses for jazz players, students, and classical music students interested in jazz and impromptu music teachers.
For this program we will set up some courses related to jazz, such as improvisation in chords, development of improvisational motives, application of jazz chords, mastery of jazz rhythms, and we will pick some practical jazz works to analyze with everyone Playing.
For this program we will also set up a Jazz Small Band rehearsal class and a Jazz Big Band rehearsal course. We will select some moderately difficult jazz standard rehearsals led by Ameropa's teacher for band rehearsal and solo training courses. We will divide the students or teachers who come to participate in this program into different small band groups for the training of the small band rehearsal classes, and reorganize and imitate different jazz works of different styles, as well as the playing methods of different musical instruments in the band. We will also conduct some targeted rehearsal courses for different musical instruments in the band's improvisational thinking, as well as development and processing.
The Jazz Big Band rehearsal course will be jointly completed with students and teachers who come to participate in other Ameropa projects. First of all, we will prepare the Jazz Big Band artwork for the rehearsal. Then we will invite the teachers and students in the chamber music program. Together with performances and rehearsals, we will also set up training sessions with respect to the structure, sounds, and functions of the Jazz Big Band's various parts. We will also analyze and train the solo and accompaniment of different instruments in large bands.
We will set up improvisation courses to train performers, students and teachers in various fields that are interested in improvisation. It is well known that all classical music performances and composers such as Mozart, Beethoven, Verdi, Liszt, etc. are all masters of improvisation. Impromptu music is the best way to train one’s own inner musical hearing. As well as the best way to express emotions in music performances, we will help participants to train melody, rhythm, and harmony on improvisation in different emotional environments and different ways of expressing music in different situations.
