I'm an older guy, a self-taught former full-time pro musician, competent on guitar, flute and vocals but newer to the piano. As a singer, I've come to love jazz standards and have tried a lot of other courses to get going in that area, learned some good things, but when I found Open Studio I found just what I needed, taught logically and engagingly. Never felt so perfectly suited to an online class and have no doubts that I will stay busy for the duration with these guys and that I will improve steadily while staying enthused. Great content, highly recommended.

I'm simultaneously working my way through Jazz Piano Jump Start and Diane Reeves' Define Your Voice, while also binging on Diane's concerts (on YouTube). These courses are taught differently and each one is amazing. Diane brings us into her process. She is so articulate about her artistry. Peter Martin and Adam Maness give a lecture and then Adam guides students through practice sessions. In the first lesson, I learned about intervals and started ear training and playing by ear. I need both courses if I'm going to develop my vocal instrument and interpret a lyric. I couldn't be more pleased with these courses.

The check out was confusing. 1. A discount was not credited and 2. Somehow I paid for a Voice lesson I did not ask for and don’t play piano. I lost my trust for this company.

Hi there. Thanks for taking the time to provide a review. Sorry the checkout experience wasn't optimal for you. It does appear that the three packs were discounted for you. I've refunded your Voicings Pack for you completely, but you can still have access to it. It's about chord voicings that would apply to you as a pianist. It's not necessarily a vocal course. Let us know how we can make your experience at Open Studio any better. Shoot us an email at support@openstudiojazz.com Best, Dan Co-founder, Open Studio

Excellent videos, great teachers, vastly comprehensive-definitely 5 stars. As a semi-pro there’s lots to learn here.

I discovered Helio Alves. I am taking his piano course. It is helping me a lot in writing the piano/vocal book for my musical SPELL OF RIO.

I especially like Adam's presentations as they are very easy to follow along with.

I found Adam & Peters YouTube videos during the pandemic and open studio as a result. I love the quality and the way they approach teaching Jazz Piano. Certainly the combination of their free stuff (of which there's a lot) and the paid courses make the open studio Jazz tuition the best available online.

The content is really good but it's very difficult to navigate within a video (e.g. 5sec back or forward) and the keyboard shortcuts don't work either. I hope this will improve soon...

Hi Ryusuke, thanks for taking the time to give us a review. We do actually have a series of keyboard shortcuts that can help you in both the Living Notation player and the Simple Player.

Impressive range of artists who have generated video content. Great tech innovations such as the living notation. Really like the community aspect. But ultimately, recorded video content is not an effective substitute for real life lessons, training and mentorship. Open Studio could greatly enhance its offering if it, for example, generating a service where student could book lessons (over zoom) with top level teachers (for extra $ of course). Serious students won’t get very far without expert one to one feedback from world class players.

Thanks for the honest feedback, Ian. It sounds like you may be looking for the community-based coaching as part of Open Studio Pro (openstudiojazz.com/pro). It includes over 50 live coaching sessions with opportunities for feedback on your playing from one of our instructors. If that doesn't suit you, we do have monthly masterclasses where members like you can volunteer to be featured in the masterclass. Let us know if you are interested. It's included in your Piano Access Pass membership. The next one is Sept 16th at 1pm ET with Geoffrey Keezer. If interested, simply email us at support@openstudiojazz.com Best, Dan co-founder, Open Studio

Hello! I'm not good at english(I'm from eastern Europe) or writing, but I know that all of you guys are doing a great, great job with Open Studio. No matter the level of playing, I'm sure everyone finds his own pace with you, that's why I follow you. I tried with others too, but you keep my interess high.Thank you for that and I recommend you keep up the good work!

Hi.. it's been a week and I must say that I am very pleased. I have already learned a lot and my piano playing has improved. I am very glad of my choice of learning with you. The videos are great and very helpful. The parts are well written and a good way to practice and progress. Thank you... I wish I had known Open Studio before. Pierre

I'd like to revise my earlier review. Previously I was happy with everything except the ability to expand the screen to have a clear view of fingerings while still being able to start, stop, and rewind the lesson. The proffered explanation solved those issues. There was never any issue with the presentations and the concepts being taught. The programs I've used (piano) are all first rate!

Open studio is worth the 'price of admission' and really should cost more than it does. So thank you guys for keeping costs accessible. I don't know how you do that, but you haven't priced many of us out, for which I am grateful. Open Studio is the heart of what musicianship is about, a willingness to show others exactly how to get where you as masters in the craft are. And you don't oversell. Your site is the real deal for those who what to learn Jazz. Thanks for not underselling the reality that being good at the piano isn't an overnight process. Progress and mastery require dedication and work - while having fun.
