Thanks everyone for a great Jazz Colony this summer. Our final class is on Tuesday and our culminating performance is on Wednesday 8/27 at Anthony's in Edmonds (outside behind the restaurant) from 5:00 to 8:00.
Since I don't have time to hear everyone individually in class, I would like everyone to email me the following assignments. You can record yourself on your computer, phone, or mp3 recorder and send me the files.
- Record yourself playing the Chet Baker solo unaccompanied
- Record one of your blues compositions
email to stevetres <at> gmail.com
See you Tuesday
