Come experience the freedom of improvisation! We will learn basic chords, progressions, and reading lead sheets. We will play with a rhythm section and learn a blues and other styles. Have fun and develop your sense of time in a whole new way!
A small concert will follow with the contribution of Alex Trampas (bass), Panos Georgakopoulos (drums) and Vasilis Saltikis (sax).
