Free Jazz Piano Lessons! Learn how to play jazz piano, jazz piano forums, discussions, jazz book reviews, jazz studies, piano midi files

Jazz piano improvisation and theory is based on science, and if you put the time in to master the concepts behind the art, nothing will hold you back.

You'll find a lot of information here that will give you ideas about using your jazz piano study time wisely. You'll also find tips, tricks, and some immediate jazz piano gratification like blues licks, jazz piano transcriptions, improvisation tips, harmonizing melodies, jazz exercises and scales, chord progressions to jam on, and more.

So why is all this information, these jazz piano tricks of the trade, offered for free? Well, there's a great jazz piano community here and it's a privilege for me to be a part of it. Not only do I enjoy interacting in the forums, but the amount of information here always gives me something new to work on at the piano.

The sacrifice of a jazz pianist is not how much jazz piano lessons cost, it's the time you spend dedicating yourself to getting better and having more fun at it. Practicing, learning the music, adjusting to the jazz pianist life style... if you haven't figured it out already, not only are these the costs, but the benfits too. Is it worth it? I think so.

Pull up a bench, turn on your piano light, and enjoy yourself.
