Greg Abate is known for the music he makes and the workshops and lectures he gives about both process and performance. This presentation will include demonstrations of what constitutes a jazz performance and the mystery of true Jazz Improvisation. Greg will use the piano to demonstrate harmonic progressions, melodies, and bass lines. He will also discuss and demonstrate the function and chord progressions of drums and piano, wind instruments, and vocals. He will demonstrate how a song is created and explain some of the many different shapes and concepts of playing jazz in the moment, and exploring the relationship of harmony, melody, and rhythm. This will take place in the Owl Hall of the Education Wing.
