The WEA Jazz courses
with Steve Glendinning started successfully last week, but we need more people
to attend for the courses to continue.
I’m too ladylike to say
we need more bums on seats, but that’s the size of it!
Improvisation
from
1pm to 3pm and Jazz Appreciation from
3pm to 5pm, both at the Unitarian Church in Ellison
Place in Newcastle
city centre.
I was at the Jazz
Appreciation and it was a real treat, so don’t miss out! We listened to some early jazz from Jelly Roll
Morton and discussed what was going on in the music. Next week we are going to compare this with
swing, post 1930. Loads of useful
information, and Steve gave musical examples on his guitar. I now know the exact reason why a ‘standard’
is called a ‘standard.’
Don’t miss out, be there,
or the courses won’t continue. You don’t
need to pre-enrol, just turn up on Thursday (6th Nov). See YOU

Unless you are retired or on the dole, you can't go to a 1-3pm session.
I agree with the first comment. I would be interested but have a full time job.
