The course is designed for individual instruction. It creates a high degree of student enthusiasm by introducing a “new” sound into the piano lesson. This new sound, while being “different” when compared to classical playing, is the popular and familiar sound of jazz and rock. Improvising is a natural part of Jazz/Rock playing. It allows the performer to use music to express individual feelings and ideas. In our course, improvisation is introduced and structured in such a way that it makes it possible for everyone to learn.
