Mark Wade

To help defray travel costs and to cover the visa application fee for teaching in the UK

Mark Wade was invited to teach a master class and perform a concert at the Benslow Music Academy in Hitchin, England in early February of 2020. The subject of the class will be understanding the music of Duke Ellington, George Gershwin, and Cole Porter. Students will have the opportunity to undergo extensive training with Wade as they learn to perform and better understand this classic American music through ensemble workshops and listening sessions involving historical recordings. This will be Wade’s first international teaching engagement.
