Join us for a brief concert followed by a clinic on jazz improvisation at 7:00PM. Both are open to jazz and strings enthusiasts of all ages.  Howes is an exciting performer and clinician, and has the ability to get players jamming right off the bat.  Participants can look forward to an engaging evening of jazz to energize their playing.

 

A former associate professor at Berklee College Of Music, Christian is well-respected as a pedagog for working with classically trained string players and teachers in improvisation, music technology, theory/composition, and eclectic styles.  This is done through extensive outreach, an innovative online curriculum, and his annual summer camp. In addition to his educational merits, he has earned many awards as a jazz performer and recording artist ("#1 Rising Star - Violinist" by Downbeat in 2011, "Violinist of the Year" (nomination) by Jazz Journalists Association in 2011, and named among the top three jazz violinists by JazzTimes Critic's Poll in 2013).
