If you click on the Practice Sessions link and get a .zip file you are accessing the pre- February 2013 Practice Session format. As of this writing (March 2013) most of the lessons have not been updated to the new format (onscreen Practice Session format) but I am working to get all of the lessons updated and hope to have this done by May 2013. Please contact me if you have questions about when a lesson will be updated.

No! Since February 2013 all of the lessons have been upgraded to HTML5 and no plugins are necessary to watch any of the lessons. If the lessons are not working for you, please contact me.

If you are viewing the site on a wireless connection the video quality will be lowered automatically to account for the limited bandwidth. If you switch to a WIFI connection the video quality will improve dramatically.

Performance of the videos on mobile devices is highly dependent on the strength of the internet connection. The stronger the connection the better the videos will perform.

Please contact me. I want to hear about any questions you have about the lessons.

Yes! Please contact me. Describe your musical background, experience and goals and I will write back with specific lessons for you to work on.

You should be able to read music notation (treble and bass clef) and should know how to play all 12 major scales. A good lesson to try to see if you are ready for the lessons is the Five Essential Seventh Chords lesson. If you can follow this lesson then you should be OK. This lesson also has a major scale refresher in the practice sessions to help you get your major scales in shape.

It certainly should. In addition to the theoretical material, all of the lessons are based on a transcription of a commercially available recording that will help you listen to and explore the jazz tradition.
