“Open Studio makes learning jazz piano a joy. I have long searched for a teacher and this resource has the finest, as well as tons of excellent examples in the teaching material and really helpful notation right where and when you need it - the thing I love the most has to be Adam and Peter’s charisma and their genuine love for the music. Thank you Open Studio for all the things you are!”

“CrossBonesAlex🤓 (Germany) "Open Studio" lessons and "You'll Hear It" podcast are so much fun watching and listen to every day... Your comprehensive and entertaining Jazz lessons combined with a good sense of humor really motivates and inspires me💯👌”

“Une méthode accessible et complète pour nous guider, même pour des musiciens non anglophones. Adam et Peter sont des pédagogues hors-pair et avec énormément de bagou ! Prochaine étape une masterclass en France à la « j’irai dormir chez vous »?”

“I come to Open Studio with a background as a professionally trained jazz drummer, having performed for over 25 years, and a graduate of an elite jazz school. My intention was to elevate my piano playing skills, and while I found some value in the lessons, I have reservations that lead me to give a rating of 3 stars. The content indeed offered insights, but the speed at which the lessons are conducted presented challenges. A lack of provided fingerings and an overall 'rushed' atmosphere detracted from what I hoped would be a more focused and refined experience. While I recognize and appreciate the culture and vibe of jazz instruction, I mean I lived it for a large part of my life as a drummer, my expectations were aligned with something more meticulous in its approach. I've noticed that several comments under the lessons resonate with my sentiments, lending further credence to my observations. I believe the piano courses could benefit from adopting a more intentional pedagogical approach, aligning the instruction with the needs and expectations of learners at varying skill levels”

“Adam Maness is a top-notch teacher, a natural who's able to inject a little humor in key spots for what could easily become a dry topic. The "play it with me" nudges are genuine, and make the content immediately useful because of the engagement it generates from the viewer. (Really, walk to your instrument instead of passively watching that latest 6th diminished scale video on YouTube, and "play it with him!") It'll change your game. Thanks, Adam, and everyone at Open Studio, for the great content.”

“I don't know where to find all the scales that Peter talks about. Are they written down somewhere?”

Hi Lynn, First off, welcome to Open Studio! You may be referring to the etudes the Peter demonstrates in the Essential Jazz Piano Etudes course that you can find on your course dashboard here--> https://www.openstudiojazz.com/view/courses/27-essential-jazz-piano-etudes They are written out in a downloadable workbook. If that's not what you meant, shoot our team an email at support@openstudiojazz.com Best, Dan Martin Co-founder, Open Studio

“I'm a huge fan! Adam teaches so clearly and with such enthusiasm. And the supplemental pdf workbooks are the perfect complement. Truly feel I am getting great value for my money. Thank you!”

“The content is fantastic, as a classical pianist, it was easy to bridge my knowledge and be as efficient as possible in learning jazz. Adam is also a great teacher. The only problems I've found is that soundslice doesn't really harmonize too well with keyboard shortcuts. Being able to skip 10 seconds forward or back would be such a game changer!! Also the course overview is not really that personalized. How about a quick little quiz that defines your level right after first logging into open Studio, so that appropriate content is recommended. I spent a lot of time on the elements of jazz course when I really didn't need to...”

Hi Tim, Thanks for taking the time to review. Soundslice does have some keyboard shortcuts that you can see here (https://www.soundslice.com/help/en/player/tips/1/keyboard-shortcuts/), but I'll pass your suggestion along to them for a quick rewind/ff. I can see how that would be useful. We are in the process of developing a brand new site and we will definitely be implementing your quiz idea to help people get started on the right path. Happy practicing! Dan Martin co-founder, Open Studio

“My overall experience has been very good. Most courses are pre recorded. It would be great if there was more interaction or acknowledgment from the teachers of each course. Otherwise, highly recommended. I’m a full time musician/ educator myself. Open Studio has more than enough content to help me work on my weak areas - SOLO jazz piano. I’m now enjoying my sixth year as a member of O.S (recently upgraded to O.S PRO) My confidence for solo piano is now getting me more work. Thank you, Peter Martin, Adam Maness, and all the other amazing educators onboard.”

“I'm very satisfied with the content of Open Studio. As a long-term jazz piano learner, I would always struggle with how I learn to improvise and voicings. Especially, guided practice session helps me to learn effectively and never get bored. It's been only a week since I join, and I am sure I can continue to learn jazz on Open Studio. Thank you .”

“I love the voicings and the colours produced in the teachings of the Open Studio. The one recommendation that I would make that would help me is to see a score when demonstrations are being presented, e.g., if the piece transitions into one of the modes then it would be useful to see the notes and the name of the mode. I am not yet able to grasp each of the modes quickly and by ear, albeit I suspect that your approach is designed to develop the student's ear rather than using a score. However, that might take me some time to achieve.”

“absolutely the best course i could imagine. I recommend to everyone, beginner or advanced musicians. Adam is a phenomenon, especially for the clarity and simplicity with which he teaches. I tried several other solutions, but Open Studio is really complete and professional. Absolutely the best on the web.”
