Living in a quiet rural place is something I do enjoy very much but when it comes to playing together with other musicians it is getting complicated. I have to drive more than an hour to join a big band and even playing with another person takes more time than I can afford. Nevertheless, I have 3 or more jam session plus 101 sessions every week, without leaving home. Thanks to optical fiber internet this has become a reality. In real-time, with low latency, people connect from both sides of the Atlantic. Many still think this is impossible. They are wrong.

I’ve noticed in talking to some students, that some people have watched some of the course videos (on both trombone/brass and jazz improv) and felt a bit lost. I want to encourage everyone to please comment here (or reach out to me directly) if there’s anything from the course videos that was confusing, or you felt you didn’t quite know what I was trying to get at. I think it would be kind of impossible to present courses in subjects as subtle as these that are fully stand-alone, especially since everyone is starting from their own place and level of experience, so the video are, in part, meant to inspire conversation and further explanation. So please don’t give up on the videos if you feel lost. Let me know if you don’t fully get something so I can make it clear! -D

BTW I wonder if anyone makes or wants to make a sort-of "jury" sesh where ppls play something and others comment? I did in colly and as I gets better it would be cool to play bits now and then. Jaust asking
