Novosibirsk College of Music Improv Class

I taught a large improv ensemble tonight at the Novosibirsk College of Music. Many had never done free improvisation, and nearly all had never done it in a large, leaderless ensemble. Here are the fruits of their labor:

Academgorodok Concert

Last night had a concert at Niikuda Art Club in Academgorodok, just 40 minutes outside of the city. Tried to upload video here but there is a problem. Today I will teach an improvisation ensemble at the Music College in Novosibirsk - mostly jazz students who have not done free improvisation before. They attended our meeting last week at the school when I first arrived in town.

For some strange reason, the video uploaded just fine to YouTube:
