Syncopation was the theme for this master class. Great job to everyone who accented the unexpected!
Eli Yamin presented a workshop called “Making a Soulful Sound and Finding Freedom through Blues and Improvisation” on November 4, 2014 at the Balanced Mind Curriculum Conference (XVIII), a professional development event for art, dance, music & theatre educators. The event was sponsored by Nassau NYSCAME (New York State Council of Administrators of Music Education) and was held at Molloy College in Rockville Centre.
In this hands-on workshop, participants experienced how the Blues is the universal soul of all American music from Jazz to Country, R&B to Hip-Hop. How does one make a soulful sound? How can improvisation help one sing and dance the Blues to get rid of the blues? These questions and more were answered as participants performed “There’s Blue All Around Me, But I’m Not Feeling Blue Today,” a blues song from Nora’s Ark, the jazz musical by Eli Yamin and Clifford Carlson.
