Hey everyone
In August our live seminars are focusing on creative voicing techniques. We’ll host 2 workshops exploring the rich harmonic vocabulary of jazz piano.
The first workshop is hosted on Zoom with Tuomo and dives into the colour and tension of altered dominant chords.
In the second workshop hosted by myself, we will explore the modern sounds and textures of quartal voicings and quartal harmony.
As always, both sessions will be added to the seminar archives page shortly after each event, so if you can’t make it live, you can always catch up with the replay.
Here are the full workshop descriptions and links to add to your calendar:
