Midcoast Music Academy (MCMA) will host an educational workshop with Washington DC based jazz pianist James Fernando and his trio on Saturday, October 5, from 1 - 2:30 p.m., in the Blue Cafe space at the Camden Opera House. The workshop will explore the art of combo playing and musical communication in a group – and is presented in partnership with the Camden Opera House and Jazz in June. 

Fernando and his trio will perform at the Camden Opera House that same evening at 7:30 p.m. 

The workshop is free to music students and music educators, and open to observers – but limited to 30 participants. Interested participants must register to reserve a spot. A suggested $20 donation helps enable MCMA to offer similar programs in the future.
