Tom explains complex material in a very clear way. This is inspiring, useful, thorough and will you keep busy for long time. I have some other classes from T.L. and they all are great.
These are well structured, comprehensive and specific classes that I would recommend to any player interested in more modern jazz guitar.
Great lessons. One of the most intense lessons I have come across. They describes the sound of modern jazz ideas in detail with some background information, which I think is critical in terms of learning the concept. Materials are well organized and easy to follow. Thank you Tom.
Not only the lesson in the is well done and very clear, but also the pdf stuff is quite precious. I like the way Tom teaches giving you a lot of ideas to be develop by your own...like a springboard. Another wonderful teacher from the mike's master classes!! I recommend this class to all the ambitious and enthusiastic guitar players who wants to deepen the modern jazz vocabulary.
Another great class. Tom teaches you how to move beyond your traditional jazz chords. Highly recommended to anyone who is looking for a fresh perspective jazz harmony.
What I wrote about Vol. II is also true about Vol. III - I can't recommend this series highly enough to everyone seriously interested in modern jazz guitar - Don't miss it!
I could only afford one of these 3 class offerings; I chose this one, but now, I'm sure I could not go wrong. What an outstanding class!! NOT for those who are not already pretty well versed in theory and skill, but if you listen to Rosenwinkel, Monder, Moreno, etc. and go "yeah, like that....", this is the series of classes to get you there. I've followed Tom for a long time in other venues, and he knows his stuff and delivers it.Very condensed material, well presented, and the backing tracks available are an idea that other teachers should follow.
