Abstract

The Jazz Pedagogy Master's degree requires students to develop their skills in improvisation, arranging, composition, pedagogy and general rhythm section instrumental performance. Certain aspects of this degree are to be presented in the form of a graduate recital with an accompanying abstract. The first half of my recital and abstract will focus on my work with learning the piano, bass guitar and drum set. The second half pertains to my primary instrument, the vibraphone, and how it can be showcased in a variety of ensemble settings. Each piece is described according to its historical context, arrangement or compositional techniques and improvisational demands.
