Energetic jazz, soul and funk of the highest order: those familiar with the American jazz/funk collective surrounding band leader and bassist Michael League will know Snarky Puppy to be highly resourceful. In recent times, the band has been working on unique, unamplified arrangements of songs from their entire repertoire, which previously – in their original form – earned them several Grammy Awards. For those interested in learning what exactly goes into arranging for an entirely acoustic line-up, there is the online masterclass by the band entirely devoted to the art of acoustic: how do you go about this as an arranger and band leader, especially when normally you make distinctively dynamic compositions in which every electronic tool is used, from amplifiers and studio techniques to synthesisers and effects? The charismatic League will share his musicality, expertise and infectious enthusiasm in a way that makes this masterclass a must, even for non-musicians.
