This course is a continuation of the Learn to Jam course. Participation in the first course is not a requirement, some prior knowledge is (see below: prior knowledge).

We work on the basics of jamming together: improvising, playing together, tips and tricks for communicating the unwritten laws of music. Saxophonist and band leader Reindert gives you all the tools you need to feel at home in any musical situation. Together we will look for your role or story, and how to share it in an improvising musical group. And we'll of course enjoy a lot of jamming!

Practical

All instruments are welcome! WISPER provides a drum kit and a piano + a small PA system.

Level of experience

Level 3: You have basic experience on your instrument as well as some experience improvising or jamming in a group. You have previously taken a WISPER course or other training that covers improvisation and definitely already attended a (public) jam session. Not sure about your level?Send an email to reindert@wisper.be. Feel free to come and try out one of our free Jam Sessions!
