Jazz 33 - Guitar & Vocals



Although the duo is the smallest possible band, it offers all forms of interaction in jazz. This makes this formation very exciting and at the same time makes high demands on the musicians. The course offers input in the areas of arrangement, sound, voicings and improvisation. Standards and bossa novas are worked on, which are performed at the jazz evening. Unfortunately, the originally planned instructor, Eva Mayerhofer, is unavailable this time due to health reasons. However, we are very pleased to have secured Viviane de Farias, a renowned bossa nova expert, as our instructor.

Teaching team:

Born in Ipanema, Viviane de Farias grew up in Rio de Janeiro and Los Angeles. Her solid classical background, her "warm and caressing voice", of an "extremely wide register and deep lyrical emotionality", her "bewitching refinement" and "impeccable vocal technique" earned her the reputation of "one of the top brazilian singers" abroad.


Christian Eckert is an experienced duo player. He went to Holland in the early 90s to study jazz guitar before moving to New York to study with teachers such as Jim Hall, Hal Galper and John Abercrombie.
