​STUDENTS OF THE JAZZ FLUTE MASTERCLASS SAY

Your DVD isn't worth $35.....it's absolutely PRICELESS!!!  It took me until yesterday to finish watching it because my daughters' been visiting. I still managed to sneak in time to watch a couple parts each day. Wow! From an ex-teacher point of view, it's perfect. You include just the right mix of theory with examples in each section. It's a great addition to your book. So smart of you to leave off the accompaniment to really get your point across about the importance of practicing solo. I love the improv examples in all the sections. Another great part is how you go step-by-step putting in all the little helpful tips. For me personally, it fills in the gaps of my piece meal jazz flute education. 
Bravo!! & Thank You!! 
I'm having so much fun practicing.
-Audrey McPherson
Part 1-Articulations-absolutely OUTSTANDING.
On to the blues - This is priceless!!!
I'm so glad that you talk about major Pentatonic- I didn't think about it for years. Just minor Pentatonic.
I also like that you have it presented in notation- I do better that way, (probably many classically trained flutists like me do)
I know the Pentatonic and blues stuff- but it is SO well taught. You are such a natural teacher.
-Donna Sevcovic
That's the next best thing to you actually being here and teaching me ... so naturally I had to get it :D
That was a pretty sweet DVD .... it's cool man :)
