Jazzin' the Blues with Paul Speidel

On Tuesday, November 17 at 1:00pm, the Holmes Public Library will be hosting a Zoom event with Paul Seidel entitled - Jazzin' the Blues

This program is both a historical and concert experience, which takes listeners on a musical journey from the beginnings of Jazz and its Country Blues roots, through each subsequent period of Jazz evolution, bringing them right up to the modern day with examples of the Blues influences—not just in Jazz—but also Latin, Soul and Rock-n-Roll!  Along the way, we highlight the characteristics of swing, simple musical forms and improvisation as defined in each stage of Jazz’ development.  Pieces by classic artists are emphasized, and introduced with some background and history of the music, plus memorable tidbits about the piece or composer (famous renditions, etc.)…a “curated concert”, if you will.
