Studio d'Improvisation de Montréal Session de printemps commence 5 avril!

Studio d'Improvisation de Montréal avec Ellwood Epps

5, 12, 19, 26 avril, 14h-16h

Venez faire partie d’un excitant atelier où vous pourrez libérer votre créativité et développer vos habilités comme musicien d’improvisation. Tout le monde est bienvenue peu importe l’instrument dont vous jouez, depuis combien de temps vous en jouez ou de quel genre de musique vous êtes issue. Le but de ces quatre jours d’atelier est de jouer de la musique ensemble et l’expérience que vous avez sera aussi importante que la musique que nous ferons ensemble.

Come be part of this exciting ensemble-based workshop where you'll be able to unleash your creative spirit and develop skills as an improvising musician. All are welcome, no matter what instrument you play, how long you've been playing, or what style of music you might come from. This four-day workshop is about playing music together in real time, and the experience you have will be just as important as the music we make together.
