Andy Scott will be running the week-long, residential saxophone course at Creative Vacances in South West France, from 26th May to 1st June. The 10th anniversary of the workshop will see Andy running sessions on improvising, transcribing and composing for saxophone, covering many genres - from jazz, to classical, to rock and roll. "Ten years have flown by, I'm looking forward to working in La Moreau again!" - Andy Scott The course will offer five days of scheduled workshops, along with a thirty minute private lesson with Andy and an evening jam session with participants. Spaces on the workshop are being limited in order to ensure a personal and high quality experience for all. Should you be interested in this workshop, booking early for May 2020 is recommended as places are limited and each year this course sells out.
