SUMMARY:Bring in Da Funk\, Part I
DESCRIPTION:Class Schedule: Thursdays – September 12 & 19 | 7:30 – 9:00 PM \n“On the one”—James Brown often defined funk as a groove\, emphasizing the first beat\, using the ‘one-two-three-four’ downbeat.

This two-session virtual course taught by Kit O’Toole will trace funk through its blues\, jazz\, soul\, New Orleans\, and R&B roots. The class will culminate in discussing\, among other funk pioneers\, three of the music’s most important figures: Brown\, Sly and the Family Stone\, and George Clinton. The course includes multimedia presentations and class discussions. \nZoom Link will be provided upon registration.
