New to improvisation? Start here! This course will improve your skills through songs, etudes, exercises and riffs. After completion, you’ll be able to perform 5 songs in varying styles, and you’ll have a plan for learning new songs and developing your improvisation skills.

This is the first of my upcoming 'Vibraphone Masters' course series - featuring the great Bobby Hutcherson!  This course breaks down one of his most accessible solos for beginners and intermediate players - 'Idle Moments' (From Grant Green's record 'Idle Moments').  For more info, see the course page.

This sequential lesson series will build up your understanding of the 12-Bar blues, using bebop phrases, substitutions, and ii-V lines all in the style of the great Milt Jackson. PDF Book & Backing Track included!

"All Of Me" is one of the best songs to get started with jazz improvisation. In this course, you will be playing and improvising right from the start. In each lesson, I introduce a simple musical element, and then demonstrate how to improvise with that element. As the lessons progress, the musical elements build upon each other..AND of course there's 'call and response'. This course is great for beginners. :)

This intermediate level course goes in-depth on how to play “On Green Dolphin Street” in the key of C. We will analyze the chords structure, and use a variety of improvisation approaches, plus I’ll give you some creative ways to structure your practicing on this tune.

This classic jazz tune will train your chops on ii-V-I’s in F, Eb, Db and C minor. Each etude builds on the previous, giving you a clear progression from beginner to advanced. PDF book for C, Bb, and Eb instruments!

Ah, yes. This famous tune will teach you about modulations to the relative minor, secondary dominants, as well as tricky turnarounds – so come on in to this course, where I will explain everything in the simplest way possible – and you will have fun learning it by PLAYING!
