Jazz & Improvisation

Create, not just interpret

For students drawn to jazz, blues, and popular music, this approach emphasizes chord symbols, lead sheets, improvisation, and comping patterns alongside standard technique. Students learn to build voicings, interpret lead sheets, and improvise solos over common progressions. Best for students with some foundational technique already in place.
