Registrations and auditions are now open for the VI International Jazz Accordion and Modern Harmony Master Classes at the Centro Cultural Marcos Valcarcel in Ourense, Spain with Victor Prieto. Nine positions are available for the masterclasses which will be held on July 13th & 14th and July 20th & 21st.

The event will begin with a Jam Session at the Jazz Club "Cafe Cultural Auriense", and all participants will get the opportunity to play with other instruments, experiment, socialize and have a great time performing in front of an audience.

The masterclasses will be held in English (with Spanish trans lation available if required) and will cover:
Improvisation: in different styles and understanding scales. (Pop, rock, bolero)
Comping: How to form chords, close position, open position, Upper structures.
Poly-Chords: My technique "Chord Approach on both hands"
Styles: How to phrase and comp: Jazz, blues, Brazilian, traditional tango, new Tango and other styles of modern harmony.
How to work and what to do in a recording studio when you get only chord changes.
How to use the registers and voices of the accordion to orchestrate and have a bigger variety of colours and sounds.

Participants will practice and perform with a rhythm section (bass and drums), so everyone can apply all the information that they have studied.

Participants will also watch videos and analyze them. How the accordion interacts with other instruments depending of the instrumentation of the groups. (Duo, Trio, Solo, voclaist, piano). A book with material will be given to each student for further studies and review (to take home).
