Jazz Creations with Joe Fonda

Jazz Creations with Joe Fonda

Under Joe’s expert guidance, you’ll dive into the process of re-imagining familiar melodies and harmonies, using techniques to expand and reshape the music in exciting new ways. Jazz Creations is perfect for intermediate musicians who are ready to stretch their creativity and explore jazz arrangements in a supportive ensemble setting.

Whether you’re looking to sharpen your jazz skills or find fresh inspiration in classic tunes, Joe Fonda’s Jazz Creations offers an opportunity to learn from an experienced jazz artist and bring a new dimension to every standard. Sign up today and experience the journey of jazz innovation!

We will work with the complete Jazz Continuum, which would include the study of playing on changes playing free, playing good swing and time and strong groove. The development of song form, and finding your own creativity. Last but not least, is discovering the joy and passion and energy that is necessary to bring life to the process of creating music. All instruments are welcome in my class.
