    What is Jazz Piano?

    Jazz piano is a vibrant, expressive form of piano playing that emphasizes improvisation, rhythm, and the unique "language" of jazz. Unlike classical piano, which focuses primarily on playing written compositions exactly as notated, jazz piano embraces creative freedom and personal expression.

    Learning jazz piano opens up a world of musical possibilities, allowing you to spontaneously create music and develop your own unique voice at the keyboard. Whether you're interested in playing jazz standards, creating your own improvisations, or adding jazz elements to other musical styles, these specialized lessons will give you the tools you need.

    My jazz piano lessons cover essential jazz theory, chord voicings, improvisation techniques and rhythm training.
