Event Details

Grammy-nominated pianist/educator Mark Levine introduces students to the harmonic formula employed by John Coltrane in the late 1950s and early 1960s, mastery of which is still considered an essential skill for aspiring jazz musicians. Most famously serving as the harmonic basis for his 1959 composition “Giant Steps,” Coltrane also used the formula as the basis for numerous other original compositions and also as a means of reharmonizing various jazz standards. In this workshop, Levine discusses compositional precursors (the music of Tadd Dameron and Richard Rodgers), and also tracks the influence and continued relevance of “Giant Steps” and other compositions based on John Coltrane’s harmonic formula. Numerous practical applications are discussed. September 30, 2012 11 am - 1 pm Mark Levine $30 advance purchase/$45 day of the workshop
