Just bought a 1-year membership to Open Studio on Christmas Day as a little present to myself. It was a good call. Though I'm still getting acquainted with all there is to absorb, I'm very pleased with the level of professionalism and overall presentation of the content. I have specific goals and there is little doubt I'll be greatly assisted by the quantity and variety of quality material available with my membership. The effort and high production quality put forth by Open Studio is evident, and continues to improve over time as evidenced by older vs. newer content. In particular, both Adam and Peter are engaging, amusing, and effective in their presentation of even the most challenging of concepts and their application. Excellent work gentlemen. Selfishly, I'd like to see multiple deep-dive episodes into reharmonizing 'pop cover songs' into solo piano jazz pieces. Taking classic 60's-70's covers by the likes of James Taylor, the Beatles, etc., and turning them into dense jazz harmony renditions is what I aspire to do. I didn't grow up listening to the jazz standards typically performed by jazz musicians so I don't have the same appreciation for that material...but I LOVE jazz harmony. I've seen a few guys on YouTube do this with great success...now I 'must have it!' I'm adding a file to a reharmonization performance like this by young pianist Yohan Kim where he does exactly what I want to do. He covers the Beatles song Yesterday. It's gorgeous. Lastly, I've yet to come across any references to either the young phenom multi-instrumentalist Justin-Lee Schultz or the amazing Eldar Djangirov in your material or Podcasts. Both are quite noteworthy and I believe quite deserving of being highlighted in your Podcasts. In particular, Eldar's technique and deft touch appears flawless. I've added files of both of them below. Keep up the great work, the excellent content, and the engaging presentation of material. In time, with your help, I'll be reharmonizing my favorite tunes from my youth into jazz harmony versions with quality bebop solos over the changes - all with a big smile on my face.

For musicians like me who live in a place where there aren't many jazz teachers, OpenStudio is a great help. I couldn't pass up the opportunity to learn, the material is practical and enjoyable. I recommend it!

Amazing super fun and down to earth accessible instructors. I’m doing piano but applying it to the accordion. Next up vocal lessons

I completely agree with my lifelong friend Mr Lennarts who you gave a shout-out in your last podcast on not-resolutions. The content is great and the chemistry between Peter and Adam results in a lot of happy practising! Cheers, Julius from the Netherlands

I'm only 2 weeks in so it's early days. But, so far, I'm very impressed with my jazz piano jump start course. I like the fact that it is constructed specifically for long term development. The next 6 to 12 months will be significant in demonstrating my development.

I've been an open studio member for about 2 weeks now, and am currently taking the "5-minute ear training" and "jazz piano jump start" classes. This format of instruction has clear advantages over traditional in-person private lessons. I've done a couple of stints studying jazz piano in the past, and, although I always made an audio tape of the lesson, it left me thinking how great it would be to have that audio synced with overhead video of the keyboard. Open Studio checks that box. The guided practice sessions are great at combining a lesson with a practice methodology. Being able to stop and shed during the lesson is also a plus. Thanks for putting this together.

I’m an intermediate jazz pianist and all I really needed was some professional direction. Peter Martin is just what I’ve been looking for. Adam Maness is outstanding too. I’ve finally found a home where I can get better. Excellent instructors!

Great courses. I’ll be recommending to anyone interested in studying jazz. The “Jump start Jazz Piano “ has filled in missing knowledge. Thanks.

Peter the new video on Crunchy 4th voicings is fantastic, more of these quick POWERFUL videos!!! If you're a player who wants to get better then this is the place it's that simple! No gimmicks here, just serious playing by Peter, Adam and staff for every level, who dares to take the artistic challenge to speak this exciting language

This is an excellent deal - great musicians, very well designed and well thought through. I'm very happy with the content of the site and working through the Elements of Jazz piano course

I've been following you on Open Studio for months. What made me sign up was a couple of Peter Martin short videos - brief, interesting and to the point. I though, these are the courses for me. Not been disappointed at all... great lessons, quality and to the point, easy to follow, really enjoying Deep Diving around all the courses and applying your advice to my playing. I've only been with you guys (and gals?) a month or so but things are beginning to stick! Keep up the good work!

Can't recommend Open Studio enough! For those who don't have access to in-person instruction or can't afford it regularly (like myself) this is the place to be to make the kind of progress that you're after. Courses are laid our perfectly, easy to follow, and the instructors are the real deal. Great resource!!!!

As it comes to jazz - I have had lessons 20 yr.'s ago. - however, I am learning things now that I didn't get back then and now understand what was told to me 20 years ago. Love the GPS with Adam.
