THE ABC’s OF JAZZ SINGING
Jazz singing: Where to start?
When: Thursday,
October 18th – 7 to 10 p.m. 953 Gladstone Ave, Ottawa
Cost: $ 30
Every vocalist can sing a jazz standard. But having an understanding of how it works is another story. Musicians expect vocalists to be able to communicate what they want and to speak the same music language.
We will demystify a lot of jazz expressions, learn what is the structure of a jazz standard, what kind of intros and endings are best for a medium swing or a ballad or a Latin feel, how to count a tune according to the style, etc.
We will do some listening and some singing
too!
Nicole Ratté has been teaching jazz workshops since 2004 and has prepared participants to jazz camp and jam sessions since then. More details about her at www.nicoleratte.com.

repertoire, etc. Every week, all the participants will sing their song and
receive coaching. We will have guests musicians and we will organize small

Club de jazz – Ateliers de jazz vocal (niveau
intermédiaire-avancé) Ces ateliers ont pour objectif d’élargir les compétences vocales dans un format flexible. Outre le perfectionnement des techniques vocales, de la présence scénique et des techniques d’interprétation, les participants développeront leur répertoire ainsi que leurs connaissances en jazz. Il y aura des musiciens invités régulièrement et un spectacle de fin de session sera organisé en compagnie d’un trio ou d’un quatuor jazz. Nous pouvons également créer des opportunités de performances pour ceux qui le désirent. À cela s’ajoute un volet social. Nous organiserons des activités reliées au jazz. Ça peut être des concerts-maison occasionnels, aller à des spectacles dans la région et même à Montréal, organiser des ateliers spécialisés selon les besoins (logiciel de musique ou autres), etc. Nous sommes à mettre sur pied un Club de jazz pour chapeauter ces activités. À suivre…
