Carver Youth Matinee: The Art of the Groove w/ Turtle Island Quartet

Join the Grammy Award-winning Turtle Island Quartet for an exciting, interactive musical journey exploring the rhythmic roots of European classical and American jazz traditions. Using the string quartet as their guide, the group breaks down the “groove,” layering sounds and styles to build a jazz combo—one instrument at a time. Students will discover innovative techniques, improvisation, and how classical and jazz traditions blend into something entirely new—and totally unforgettable.
