WeBop's Exploring Jazz Styles: Scatters (Online)
Jazz at Lincoln Center (Online)
About
This Spring, discover the many styles of jazz with WeBop’s “Exploring Jazz Styles!” term. Over the course of 8 weeks, you and your child will move to the fast notes of Bebop, play hot Latin jazz rhythms, dance in a New Orleans second line parade, and much more!
WeBop is Jazz at Lincoln Center’s award-winning, early-childhood jazz education program for children ages eight months to seven years and their parents/caregivers. We strongly believe in children’s natural ability to improvise and we are committed to exploring their creativity through fun interactive classes!
Honoring this age group’s innate ability to respond to musical expression through vocalizations and movement, our Scatters lessons are designed to provide opportunities for children to continue developing their musicality by exploring jazz rhythms and tunes. Instructors work as facilitators creating musical experiences where families can swing, scat, and dance together. Grownups and children interact with and learn about each other through experiences with our rich cultural traditions while building a new repertoire of songs and jazz activities to use at home. Grownups will also learn more about how and why music (and especially jazz!) celebrates young children’s freedom to explore and creativity and its relevance in their lives.
