Jazz
Combo:
Improvisation Laboratory
Craig
Fraedrich, director
Craig
Fraedrich, trumpet soloist with the Army Blues, directs this laboratory
group in an exploration of jazz improvisation techniques. The ensemble
enables the students to focus primarily on improvisation, emphasizing
jazz theory fundamentals, playing coherent phrases, "making
the changes" with eighth note lines, modal and tonal improvisation,
and many other concepts. This group exists in a classroom setting,
but is a performing ensemble. One credit.
