Agenda

This professional workshop offers a fresh experience of what great leadership looks, feels, and sounds like-- engaging participants kinesthetically. Orbert Davis and members of the Chicago Jazz Philharmonic Double Quartet will lead participants in an interactive (and entertaining) presentation on how to use the concepts of improvisation to say “Yes…and!”
The CJP Double Quartet is comprised of highly trained and experienced professional musicians. In addition to their performance and teaching work with Chicago Jazz Philharmonic,  some also perform with other acclaimed classical orchestras such as the Chicago Sinfonietta and the Civic Orchestra of Chicago. Others lead their own jazz ensembles and play with countless other jazz greats. These talented musicians have also been dedicated teachers of their craft. The ensemble is always a new mix -­- some have played together often; others will be new to this group. A diverse team in every sense: members bring differing backgrounds, generations, training, music traditions, and performance styles. With Orbert’s expert, collaborative, caring leadership, they swing!
