Musicians of all ages are invited to participate in The Blast Big Band, a unique program designed to teach music fundamentals in a big band format. Students who have played saxophone, trumpet, trombone, piano, bass, guitar and drums for at least two years can sign up for a weekly session every Tuesday night at 7pm at Encinitas School of Music, 775 Orpheus Ave. Using jazz style, a truly American musical tradition, the program will include music from the big band era as well as contemporary jazz-rock sounds. Students will be trained to work in an ensemble situation, learning to play as a group. There will be clinics and performances throughout the year with the ultimate goal: to have fun making music! The fee is only $10.00 a week!
To sign-up for the Jazz Band or for more information call instructor Ron Ebel at (760) 943-9480 or email to Music@ESoM.org.
