Jazz Violin Workshop with Adrien Chevalier

The Transatlantic Hot Club are delighted to present a series of workshops on their UK Spring tour, including this exciting jazz violin workshop with our very own Adrien Chevalier. Enjoy this opportunity to step into the world of Django Reinhardt, Stephane Grappelli, and the Hot Club style with one of the premier exponents of the genre.

There will be two classes during the afternoon. Firstly Adrien will work you through some classics of the repertoire including playing the head, improvising, and working with a band. Then, after a short break, the students will join the harp class taught by Ben Creighton Griffiths to put together all of the students as a band. The day will then conclude with students taking part in the evening’s concert and showcasing their work, before enjoying a duo performance given by Adrien and Ben.

This class is suitable for all ages and players of all abilities and is open to violins and violas. If you play another instrument but would like to take part, then please get in contact with us and we will try to get you involved. Previous experience in jazz/improvisation is not essential (though always helpful).

Please note that this ticket includes entry to the evening’s concert in the Town Hall. You do not need to purchase a ticket for the evening concert if you hold a workshop ticket. See the agenda attatched to the Eventbrite listing for the days activities.
