The Blues and Beyond ~ Workshop with Steve Greene
Bernunzio Uptown Music
12:00 - 1:30pm

These workshops start with basic blues playing and continue from there.

Some of the topics include:

- how to create new chords and lines
- increasing your technical skills
- how to listen more deeply in a group setting
- the art of not taking one’s playing too seriously

It helps if you already had a little experience with blues playing.
If you’ve been playing a long time this is a good workshop to add more spice to your playing.
It is always a fun time with ( new ) jokes, and new ideas.
All instruments are welcome Questions? Contact Steve@SteveGreene.Com

P.S. 1.5 hours only $15 - wow - !

Steve Greene has been teaching in Rochester N.Y. since 1980. He is considered one of the best performers and improvisation teachers in the area.
