Jeffrey Agrell: How Improvising Can Transform Your Music Making
from Crushing Classical · host Jennet Ingle
What you'll hear: The conundrum Jeffrey found himself in when he started his new job as a horn teacher in a university, and how he solved it The story behind his unique way of teaching the horn What improvisation REALLY is… this was my favorite description of it I’ve ever heard An amazing distinction between playing and listening… A toxic part of the teaching paradigm, something I believed until now! Instead of fearing improvisation as a student… what if we demanded it be part of the curriculum? We discuss. The BIG difference in his students that have been improvising every day now compared to the ones who haven’t - this one is so powerful. What his goal is as a teacher - you simply have to hear this.
