Jazz Clinic 2/13/09


Tonight we had a cool opportunity to work with one of the top jazz artists on the Disney property. He was a smokin' trumpet player who does about everything in and around the Magic Kingdom. His clinic consisted of working with the band on some different styles of jazz in a Disney song-setting, making the kids solo and be recorded, and recording a difficult song similarly to how we did yesterday, where we laid the background music down to a clip of a Disney movie, this time "Kiss the Girls" from Little Mermaid. He also had a question and answer session where the kids picked his brain about life as a musician on the Disney property. He even let me play a bit. :)
