This Master Class, Rhythm Section Workout: The Bass and Drum Connection, will explore the important relationship between bass players and drummers. Renowned bassist Reuben Rogers will share real life experience and insightful advice. In this class, which is open to all instruments and levels, you’ll learn about the essential components that make a rhythm section groove. Whether laying down a window-rattling groove, painting lush harmonic colors or conveying delicate lyricism, Rogers’ passion and singular voice shine through in any musical setting. While he’s constantly adapting his always-recognizable voice to new settings, styles and challenges, Rogers’ career is remarkable for the longevity of his many artistic relationships. Over the last two decades, he’s been featured on more than 250 recordings (including his sole release as a leader, the 2006 all-star session The Things I Am) and countless international tours.
