Mark Davis will present two workshops as part of the Jazz Circle of MJI. Attend one or both. Monthly jazz jam to follow. Free admission for all events!

6:00-7:00 PM JAZZ PIANO WORKSHOP - Mark will focus on Barry Harris's harmonic method that uses what he called "sixth-diminished scales." If you have no idea what that is, come and find out!

7:15-8:15 PM JAZZ IMPROV WORKSHOP (open to all instruments) - Mark will show you ways to improvise using bebop scales and arpeggios, and we'll analyze a solo on "Blue Monk."

Workshops will be followed by MJI's monthly Jam Session from 8:30-10:00 PM
