For my upcoming Gypsy Jazz workshops in Switzerland and in the Cévennes, I have a small challenge to overcome.
Since I am a violinist, my workshops naturally fill up with violinists. Yet, what I love above all else is creating genuine interaction between violinists and other instrumentalists.
That is why I chose to offer global Gypsy Jazz workshops rather than exclusive jazz violin workshops.
The problem is that I am still short on guitarists and double bassists—and why not other instruments—to equip our workshops and get the tunes rolling in real-world conditions!
How can you help me?
I am relying on WORD-OF-MOUTH. If you know any guitarists or double bassists around you, or other instrumentalists who want to learn gypsy jazz, please tell them about my workshops in Fribourg and in the Cévennes. It is the perfect opportunity to work on accompaniment, la pompe, rhythmic placement, and improvisation within a real collective of musicians.
We happily welcome guitarists or other instrumentalists who want to discover the style, as we have several teachers available. As for the double bassists, they will have the luxury of getting individual lessons...
Thank you so much for your help and for sharing, and see you very soon for more music! Eva
