Had it not been for an unforeseen impediment there would have been 3 violins. This event is getting ever more popular and the American fiddle player gets up even at 5 in the morning to join us.

En España, la música gitana, la clásica y el jazz se fusionan en el flamenco, dando lugar a un género muy variado y complejo que se vive en el Sur, como una religión. Yo soy del Norte de España, Zaragoza. No se nada de flamenco, pero he hecho un ejercicio, mezclando a Manuel de Falla, Paco de Lucía, con ritmo de bulería, intercambio modal, escala de tonos, alterada...lo he mezclado todo y ha salido esto...Espero que os guste...Lo he llamado "DANZA DEL FUEGO Y EL AGUA"

Here in the Jazz Violin Academy I do not need to advocate the broad musical possibilities of the violin in diverse musical contexts. Nevertheless one does not hear everyday a violin playing in unison with a trumpet, a sax or an accordion. It is also interesting to watch the different playing styles. The recording is, as always, completely unedited https://www.jacktrip.com/recordings/GIbmMEjYolwc88fo8YlSl

I am going to attend 3 gypsy jazz workshops this year. Valencia is my first one in 2026. Since 2022 I attend at least one per year. What is common to all of these is that one spends several days with likeminded people from many walks of life. It is a bit like living in a bubble. One gets inspired, stimulated and then its is over until the next workshop. I always thought it would be nice if we could extend the experience beyond these blessed days and do more together than chatting on WhatsApp. We can, indeed. The online jams are just that. With fast internet and some basic equipment we can continue making music together. There is a classroom about this subject and even an entire SKOOL community. Interested? Reach out.
