I love the courses. Deep informative and inspiring. Specially Jazz Piano Method by Peter. What is missing in my opinion is structure, I’m a little lost. That’s why I enter your site only once in few months although i pay for yearly subscription for many years. Usually when I have a map that I know what is my next step I use it much more consistently, but here I find like overwhelmed and missing guidance on what the next step or what to watch or how to structure my practice. I miss a course on how to transcribe rhythms for advance. I still struggle to notate (not because of the pitch but how to notate complex rhythms and odd rhythms) also course of sight reading complex rhythms. I am a composers and it taking me so much days to write a short 2 minutes composition I have in my head that it is really frustrating. I would really would love to see “language of the masters” vol 2 & 3 with Art Tatum fast runs, runs and bill Evans harmony. I wish to see a dedicated course on composing and reharmonization, because I am less on playing Jazz Standards - I’m not a truly Jazz Pianist or aim to be, I am more into composing and use the jazz language and sound in my composition. I really really loved the Elements of Jazz Piano course structure and model - learning separately the harmony, the comping, how to improvise on that, and I wish you keep making more volumes of this amazing course with further more songs. I love the live masterclasses you bring other teachers snd other methods, it really opens my eyes (and ears). I love you Peter and Adam Keep bringing more. I missed the days that peter was listening to YouTube links that we sent, or mp3 we sent and gave us some tips what he like and what to improve. I wish you had such customer support option that I could send mp3 and one of your export (and knows all the courses on the site) help building a plan for me like: ok Based on your skill it would be beneficial for you to lwatch course x lesson 3, then course y lesson 5 etc- that would really be best usage of my subscription. Thanks.

Open Studio has a broad array of courses with rich content, well thought through, and mostly with guided practice sessions to help you really learn. The one thing I would like to see are clearly defined pathways for skills (pathways for levels are fine). Adam Manness is a great teacher but everyone is a great player so always more to learn.

I signed up to Open Studio last September from Italy, and I followed Adam and Peter's piano lessons with great interest, whom I thank from the bottom of my heart because I appreciated their professionalism and the love they put into their work. I understood and improved the way of playing. I am satisfied with the results obtained and I congratulate Open Studio which I think is the best online music studio. Well done! Giovanni

As an amateur learning jazz piano for several+ years, I enjoy improving, new voicing, comping, combo playing, but what I really love is Jazz Theory (a true jazz nerd) OS has inspired me with new paths and ideas to investigate!

Open Studio is a must for aspiring jazz musicians! The course offering is vast, comprehensive and most of all, fun to listen to. You’re never alone in your studies. Guided Practice sessions are fabulous! As a plus, this community is world-class🎶

A lot of good video content decently organized... I love the way Adam Manness does guided practice... makes the material very approachable. I wish there were more paved paths for people trying to get from A to B. And it's a bit expensive.

Too much talking, too much overview, description and not enough actual useful practice ideas, excersises. Takes way to long to get to the point. Too difficult to navigate. Spent way too much time scrolling, downloading before I discovered that the lesson wasn't what I was looking for. Really I was hoping for more practical direction......

Open Studio is really impressive, how professional and well-structured it is. The courses and practical classes are well prepared and very efficient, even for young students, it has all levels. The videos are accompanied by scores and with real video keyboard and virtual keyboard. IIt has everything you need for an excellent understanding and there are no doubts, or if there are there are ways to go back and understand. All lessons and courses have study resources. We couldn't be happier with this course, it's really good, and it's a pleasure to do it, it's never boring, on the contrary it's very exciting. Thanks Open Studio Team.

As an "intermediate" pianist, I took the "harmony games" course, and the material was good, the lessons were interesting, but there was about 15 seconds of video to repeat for each chord change, where they have the rhythm section. I appreciated the sheet music notes and the workbook, but I really wish there was a seperate backing track, even if it was a midi one, just to practice each of the concepts in time with rhythm, ideally in every key. The course moves very fast if you're not already a rather advanced player who picks up new concepts impressively quickly. Having said that; for 27 dollars it was a no brainer.

Great platform but I miss the $27 courses as opposed to subscription. We are overloaded with subscriptions these days, so I only buy stand alone courses/lessons!
