Join us for Weekend Workshop with David Bloom: Improvisation for all instrumentalists and vocalists in all genres, on June 23-35, 2017. 

This is David Bloom's second workshop in the Twin Cities as he expands his teaching nationally.

"I can hardly believe how far I progressed in such a short period."  -J.O.

"I learned a ton about teaching: it's art, science, and a little bit of soul." -N.N.

Students, band directors, music teachers, instrumentalists and vocalists, as well as professional musicians will experience dramatic results in their musical artistry. 

Thank you to Hot Spot Music in Northfield, Mn.
