πλευρά του εκτελεστή.
Θέματα που θα σηζητηθούν :
1) Από το score στην μουσική : Είναι γνωστό ότι η μεθόδοι γραφής στην Jazz αντιπροσωπεύουν ένα πολύ μικρο μέρος της ίδιας της εκτέλεσης , η παρτιτούρα χρησιμεύει ώς “οδηγός” περιέχοντας μία μικρή πληροφορία που απέχει κατα πολύ απο το
τελικό αποτέλεσμα , θα συζητηθούν τρόποι ανάγνωσης ενός τέτοιου είδους score με παραδείγματα.
2) Τακτικές διάδρασης μεταξύ εκτελεστών , ( group playing and interaction ) : η διάδραση των μαθητών είναι επιθυμητή.
