“I definitely like Open Studio and highly recommend it. Pro, not so much. Pro seems to be geared towards people that don't have a job, are retired or earn a living as a musician. I could be wrong, but that's my HO. But set that aside and I think Open Studio is GREAT! The only bad thing, if you can call it that, is that there is so much AMAZING content that it's easy to chase butterflies and squirrels and not actually completely learn something.”

“I can’t imagine how much I could have learned without the classes and knowledge and patience of the instructors at Open Studio. What we learn at Open Studio is applicable across the range of Western music and with a wide range of instruments.”

“Dear Openstudio team, I'm happy about our "common wavelength" (as we say in Germany) - which means that we love the same jazz standards, role models, pianos and super great bebop lines. Happiness also means that I can easily participate in many great classes live from here in Germany and have already made some "zoom friends". A great community! Maximum happiness is to meet Openstudio friends live (see attached picture with Holger). I really like the new trio GPS, which can give me a lot for my playing in my band. At the moment, however, I'm at a point of re-sorting. There's so much live input, pre-recorded sessions (would be original at 3 a.m.), classes, my own pieces for my band, so I have to figure out how to make it all work for me. An exercise plan mentor would be great. I had recently exchanged ideas with an OS participant. We both think the smaller classes (like Caili's, John Oleary's) are great, the benefit is very great there. If I could wish for something, it would be a Chris Parks piano version, which translates all the great bebop lines to the piano in a great way. It's also great that the coaches respond to suggestions, wishes and questions in such detail! You've created something great with Openstudio! So guys, I'm very happy with you all! Best Ulrike from Germany PS: Greatly improved technical English for jazz musicians (lol)”

“Hi there – Love the platform. Adam and Peter are joy to watch. My only criticism, and request, would be to see open studio, include more lessons and content, geared toward beginner, intermediate improvisers. Thank you for providing such an invaluable service. Best, Christopher”

“I needed to get major scale vocabulary, scale degrees and intervals as a foundation, before joining open studio. With that in the pocket i feel that all steps are well navigated, in terms of clarity, pacing and the delicate balance between terminology and feel- aesthetic approach. For me the major breakthroughs were in how i think about what to play not so much the actual playing- drilling, as i approach learning first from understanding then applying ( my primary interest is music composition- production fully in the box - DAW while i welcome improving my playing expression on keys)”

“I really like Open Studio, you make a great job. Courses are well organized and explanations are clear, short, right to the point, and beutifully exemplified. Transcriptions are very well done. The people who make the transcriptions in Open Studio is really good. I'm a professional composer, with formal education in composition and a post-degree specialization, but as a pianist I'm still on my way, and Open Studio opened the door for me for high quality education, and put me on the right track. Thank you very much, Peter, Adam, and the rest of the team.”

“Open Studio does a fantastic job of breaking down concepts and providing materials for students to improve their playing. They include video examples, pdf sheets with exercises in all 12 keys, and multiple additional resources for further learning. Even as a professional piano player, I have found their lessons extremely helpful and insightful. If I had to choose something to improve, the only thing I would add are suggested fingering patterns for some of the examples in trickier keys.”

“The site is really excellent. I love that you can click on the sheet music at any location and that it takes you right to that point in the recording. I think that's an amazing feature. I love the "sheet music" following perfectly along with the music, and the options of showing the keyboard and simultaneous playing. The calibre and quality of the lessons is phenomenal, and I love the attitude of the instructors. I only have good things to say.”

“It’s really great! I took a few years of jazz piano lessons in my teens which gave me a good foundation, but I always struggled to put all the pieces together. These courses are exactly what I need to start filling in the gaps. I especially appreciate the emphasis on the mental aspect of learning jazz (patience, consistency, etc.).”

Hi Timothy, To access live events, click the blinking "live" icon at the top of the page before the session is starting, or go straight to the Events Calendar linked on your dashboard. Mentor Session recordings are now in the new Community section of Open Studio. Standard members now have access to a space to easily interact with other members, share playing, and get questions answered. You can always reach out to us directly via chat or email - we're here to help. Once you get acclimated to the enhanced site, consider revising your review. Happy practicing!

“This Open Studio has everything for all levels for many instruments. My instrument happens to be the piano. I've learned so many things so far, jazz-related and otherwise. Adam is the best course instructor on piano as he is clear with his instructions and he shows much patience and enthusiasm both in his Guided Practice Sessions and in explaining the many concepts in his courses. I also enjoy his 'Shorts' on Facebook and Instagram, etc. I like Peter Martin as well, but since I'm new at playing jazz, I tend to get lost more in his courses as he moves very quickly. I do revisit his courses in hopes of learning a concept or two. So many other opportunities are provided with the Open Studio Community Page, as well as with their many 'live' sessions. Their website is easy to navigate especially with the new additions to it. Whenever I have a music question, it is answered quickly (thank you, Rachel!). This is the best jazz studio group to join if you are a musician and want to learn more, whatever level. Soo worth the $$$.”
