All That Jazz
Speaking of which, over the course of the program, the members of the Ola workshop formed their own band! It even has a catchy name to go along—All That Jazz. We’ve been incredibly pleased with how well they’ve adapted to playing with each other and have witnessed first-hand what music can do to improve bonding and connections. Our main team at Ola, consisting of our expert faculty members Swathi, Kelvin and Govind, have been instrumental in setting up all the facilities and sessions that went into the weekly sessions, and more recently, their first ever live performance!
The culmination of our partnership with Ola unfolded in October, when All That Jazz put up their maiden live performance with several other artists and bands from Taaqademy at The Raft in Koramangala. This was a special moment for several reasons: not only was it their debut on the stage, but they were taught how to prepare and set up for a gig at all stages including the soundcheck. They were a valuable part of the larger community of musicians at the venue, who all had a night to remember.
We saw firsthand how much work went into this performance, and consequently, how well they did on stage. Professionalism, dedication, teamwork and commitment are traits that every musician needs and shares in common with corporates, and All That Jazz epitomised each of these attributes perfectly in their performance!
Our workshops and programme with Ola have only reinforced our belief that music is and should be for everyone. It has countless benefits that can be applied to all spheres of life, and we couldn’t be happier to be playing a part in this group’s achievements and stories.
If you or someone you know is interested in making space for music in a corporate setting, get in touch with us! We would be more than happy to work with you and bring our years of experience and results along as well.
