Repertoire Development Webinar: Improvisation Techniques

This event is 4:00 pm EASTERN TIME (3:00 pm Central, 2:00 pm Mountain, 1:00 pm Pacific).

Have you always felt that improvisation was a special gift that only a few have? Do you think that improv is only for advanced musicians?

Through the facilitator’s improvisation suggestions and opportunities to practice during the webinar while your microphone is on mute, you can gain skill and confidence in this sometimes-challenging way to provide music. 

You will then join one other participant in a breakout room to practice—and receive—improvisation. There will also be a pre- assignment to return to the facilitator that will aid in your experiences in the webinar.

Each two-hour repertoire development webinar is $45. CMPs earn 2 CEUs. Click the title above to learn more and register. Facilitated by Cathy Maglaras, CMP, Module 2 Teacher

Cancellation: If MHTP cancels a webinar because of too few participants (less than five (5)) or any other reason, all participants will be notified via email and will receive a full refund ($45). If a participant must cancel, that participant should immediately notify MHTP’s Registrar. If a participant cancels more than one (1) week in advance, a full refund will be given. If a participant cancels less than one (1) week in advance, no refund will be given, as last-minute cancellations could make the number of participants too small for a webinar to be viable. “One (1) week” is defined literally; i.e., exactly seven (7) days prior to the scheduled start of a webinar (e.g., for a webinar scheduled for 8PM Eastern on January 14, “One (1) week in advance” is 8PM Eastern on January 7). NO REFUND WILL BE GIVEN IF YOU ARE NOT AN MHTP STUDENT OR CMP.
