Inhoud

The USA program aims to develop your skills, knowledge and attitude by experiencing the creative and entrepreneurial ‘New York mindset’. Looking at, and thinking about your professional career the way established musicians from the current New York Jazz scene do, opens up new ways of playing, creating and presenting your musical concepts. You will be working with international renowned professionals with different disciplines and complementary (and sometimes conflicting) visions on the business. Being confronted with different professionals broadens your understanding of the professional practice and challenges you to make your own choices. The following topics are addressed during the program (not exhaustive):
  • Improvising in different styles and (Jazz related) genres.
  • Writing and arranging style-conscious and original material.
  • Study and (ensemble) rehearsal strategies and techniques.
  • Leading and organizing an ensemble.
  • Presenting yourself and your ensemble.
