The Dordogne International Jazz Summer School

This channel is a resource for students of the Dordogne Jazz Summer School and includes movies taken of performances by students at all levels of achievement. The content does not accurately represent the content of the course, just those performances someone thought worth videoing. Inevitably this includes works by famous jazz composers whose work we introduce (often for the first time) to our students.

The Dordogne Jazz Summer School is based at Chateau de Monteton, in south west France and led by pianist & composer Andrea Vicari. Our philosophy is to offer a week of total immersion in jazz and improvisation. An intensive musical language course in a supportive enviroment, with a lot of enthusiastic people at all levels.
