Hi all, my name is Will.
I am a professional bassist based in NYC with 15 years of professional teaching and playing experience.
I am a jazz guy primarily and have played at Newport Jazz Festival, Java Jazz (Indonesia) and have toured extensively throughout Europe, North America and Asia, with Grammy-winning musicians on the New York and LA scenes.
I have studied with Ron Carter and Rufus Reid and am a previous graduate of Berklee and Manhattan School of Music.
I just made an online course, primarily for upright bass but also applicable to electric.
The course has:
7 modules- Setup, Technique, Harmony Basics, Ear Training Basics, Practical application and Career Tips
-170 + videos
-20 + downloadable PDFs of sample bass lines on jazz standards, classic recordings to know, and 700+ jazz songs to know
-Review of music theory and reading (you don’t need any playing experience)
-Discussion of jazz, Latin (Afro-Cuban and Afro-Brazilian), and pop styles.
It also comes with two 30 minute lessons where you can ask any questions you want.
Let me know if any of you are interested!
