music workshops
Melodic training sessions
Music workshops are group sessions focused on learning or improving musical skills, whether instrumental technique, songwriting, production, or performance.
Unlike formal lessons, workshops tend to be collaborative and hands-on, often led by visiting artists or specialists: The jazz festival offered workshops on improvisation.
They range from beginner introductions to intensive masterclasses.
