What’s a Jazzinar?

Hello Dear Friends,

I am happy to tell you that The Art Of Jazz seminar series just concluded at Pillar Institute was a smash hit! People loved the combination of recorded media, live performance and audience interaction and asked for more. Dave Rich Director of Pillar asked me to expand the jazz curriculum with new jazz seminars (I call them jazzinars) We are releasing the first today and several more will soon follow.

The first new jazzinar, a 2.5 hour program called Viva Bossa Nova, uses the same format of recorded media to explore the history , composers and artists, audience interaction.  AND the program includes a live concert of gorgeous music by the Wayne Wilkinson trio plus yours truly on flute.  We’ll go beyond the few bossa tunes that are popular to explore some wonderful music you may have never heard.  Watch the short video below for a preview and click the link below to save a seat at a discount.

July 12, 2011

“He’s An ‘Old Guy’ and has great chops.” That’s how a premier jazz pianist recently described Vic Cenicola. No, he wasn’t talking about Vic’s age. He was using “old guy,” a musicians term of respect, that  really means: he’s a fine player, who has paid his dues and has the knowledge and skills of a seasoned pro.  And, Friday more »
