Improvisation Workshop: Conception – Structure – Performance, presented by Alexandros Kentris.

The workshop focuses on developing improvisation as a core medium of expression on the musical instrument. Through specific rhythmic and harmonic patterns and sequences, as well as a free-form approach, participants will familiarise themselves with practical tools for creating, organising, and performing musical ideas.

Topics covered include:

  • Practice of improvisation over specific rhythmic and harmonic patterns, as well as repertoire pieces.
  • Free improvisation.
  • Q&A will also focus on technical approach and potential specialised exercises for plectrum (picking) technique and fingering.

The goal of the workshop is to enhance musical perception, technical fluency, and personal expression.

Duration:

4 hours (including a break). The workshop is open to all levels and instruments.

Tickets: £70 online (including booking fee). Please note, the price at the door is £80. Only card payments are accepted.
