TERRE HAUTE — The Jamey Aebersold Quartet will perform at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday in Indiana State University’s Center for Performing and Fine Art Recital Hall, 301 N. Seventh St.
Aebersold, a nationally-known saxophonist and authority on jazz education and improvisation, will be on the Indiana State campus conducting master classes from 2 to 6 p.m. in room 159 of the Center for Performing and Fine Arts.
The concert and classes are free.
Aebersold has developed a series of Aebersold play-a-longs book and recording sets (now numbering more than 113 volumes) as well as various other supplemental aids for the development of improvisational skills. The Aebersold book and recording sets allow a musician the opportunity to practice and improvise with well-known jazz personalities at home as well as in the classroom. The recordings employ some of the best jazz musicians in the world. This concept has been responsible for changing the practice habits of thousands of musicians around the world.
He was a pioneer in encouraging small group classes which concentrate on jazz improvisation, and he is the director of the Summer Jazz Workshops.
A native of New Albany, Aebersold attended Indiana University and graduated in 1962 with a master’s degree in saxophone. He was awarded an honorary Doctorate of Music by Indiana University in 1992. He also plays piano, bass and banjo.
