A multidisciplinary education
Venezuelan Andres Orco is a DMA guitar student in our Thompson Jazz Studies Program with a special interest in advanced rhythm and meter in jazz; as such, he鈥檚 also pursuing a Certificate in Music Theory. 鈥淭hrough the certificate program, I received a multidisciplinary education that I think has made me a more well-rounded musician and educator,鈥� he says. Learn more about Orco鈥檚 perspectives on the evolution of 21st-century jazz; how current theoretical literature isn鈥檛 sufficient to explain modern jazz; and amplifying the voices of expert jazz practitioners in theoretical discussions of their music.
