Improvisation is the spontaneous creation of a jazz solo within a known chord structure.

Garfield parent/musicians lead free mentoring sessions for student musicians each summer. These sessions help students play out to audiences with greater confidence. Other benefits include:

• Improve your chart reading

• Learn jazz theory, chord progressions and scales

• Build your library of jazz standards and transcriptions

• Get prepared to participate in the Garfield Gig Program

Registration details will be posted before the end of the school year.
