Inside the Course

Over 2.5 Hours of Lessons

  • Learn From the Masters

    There's no better place to build your foundation than listening to the innovators of bebop like Charlie Parker, Lee Morgan, Clifford Brown, and Sonny Stitt.

  • Work at Your Own Pace

    Your current skill level doesn't matter: this course can be worked on in 12 days or 12 months. Everyone will experience it differently, so make it your own, and let your patience and hard work pay off.

  • Old Meets New

    Learn how to integrate the old and the new, with examples of how bebop has helped me get my modern sound--despite the fact that the genre is over 60 years old.
