Stage 4 - Furnishing The House

About:

1. At this point you should feel very confident about playing tunes in front of your friends and family and can calmly call yourself a jazz pianist without hesitation or embarrassment. 2. You’re still missing VERY crucial PRO components that will completely transform your playing and allow you to achieve a true PRO sound. That is all taught in this stage. These components consist of drop 2 voicings with all voicings, isolation and execution of extensions in your chords, modern voicing set ups, advanced two hand voicing methods, and modern improv tools. Pretty awesome, right?!
