The workshop was certainly the finest I have seen in my 9 years at the University of Wisconsin. - Executive Director, Performing Arts Center
The kids are still talking about their classes last year with jazz great Corky Siegel and his Chamber Blues group, who just knocked them out. - Molly Ivins (from a nationally syndicated newspaper column)
Corky Siegel offers several unique and entertaining educational programs that can feature live contributions from the members of Chamber Blues.
Presenters often book a Chamber Blues concert and an educational program or two over the course of several days, as each event brings in different audiences.
This orchestrated presentation is great for a diverse range of audiences, from mixed age groups to a single class or school. "Music and the Joy of Diversity" features a story about a cave man that is the first to discover music when he stumbles on a Steinway grand piano at the back of a cave and becomes mesmorized by his own exploration of the joyful musical elements. The presentation creates an environment where the true power and beauty of music is revealed, and the celebration of diversity becomes the coolest thing on earth.
For almost four decades, Corky Siegel has been sharing with musicians all over the world, professionals as well as beginners, an uplifting approach that taps the natural dynamic power in their music with amazing results. He is experienced in coaching every genre, grouping and skill level, including chamber music ensembles, soloists, singers, choral groups, orchestras, drum lines, jazz bands, rock bands, and concert bands. The master classes are customized specifically for the needs of the institution, the music director and the participants — many times on the spot.
