Guitar Jam Workshop
The Guitar Jam Workshop is intended for slightly advanced up to very skillful students. Within a live scenario you will be able to refine your improvisation skills together with other musicians.
At the end of every quarter there will be a live session, where you will be playing the rehearsed tracks together with a band comprised of our teachers who will accompany you on drums, bass and keys. With the Guitar Jam Workshop your guitar playing will reach the next level!

Playing with other musicians: You will be playing over backing tracks but always together with another guitarist. Thus you will be switching between playing rhythm and lead guitar.

Music-Chart: How to read one correctly and what is important to know when jamming.
Accompaniment: You learn how to make your accompaniment groovy so that a good solo can be played over the top of it.
Solos: You learn how to compose your solo to make sure your audience can't get enough of it.
Sound: You learn how to get the right sound out of your amp, effect pedals and guitar for each song.
