I am honored to be bringing Remy Yulzari back to Rochester this weekend for several different classes - all FREE and open to the public thanks to our many sponsors! Please check out this schedule and attend what works for your schedule and your life as a musician:
Saturday March 14:
noon-1:30pm - Improv Workshop - Room 320 Eastman School
This class is open to all instruments, and will help provide easy ways to incorporate improv into your practicing and your teaching. Honestly, last year when he hosted this improv class, little Classical me said "I can't improvise...." and learned that anyone CAN do this. Remy gives great guidance that players at all levels can relate to, and uses it help build our listening and our technique as we make our way through different modes and scale patterns. It was fun the entire time we were improvising, and I felt myself listening and thinking differently after this class.
3-5pm - Double Bass Masterclass - Room 404 Eastman School
Mr. Yulzari is a classically trained bassist, studying first in France, then earning his Artists Diploma from the Juilliard School. He now tours with guitarist Nadav Lev performing their own compositions, and influences range from Classical, to klezmer to jazz. Remy's technical prowess and ability to connect with students make for a great masterclass experience. Please contact me directly if you want to play in this class (only one opening remains) by emailing gmccormick@esm.rochester.edu
Sunday March 15:
3pm - performance with Nadav Lev at the JCC - $15 suggest donation, concert of all original music, much of it recently released on two new cd's.

Monday March 16:
12:30pm - Creating your own path - a discussion of Remy's unique career path and advice for creating your own way in music. - Room A4 Nazareth College (pizza lunch will be served)
I hope you can join us for many of these events!
