Free Beginning Jazz Piano Lessons

I get emails all the time from beginning jazz pianists who were pushed by their teachers to learn advanced chord voicings (or 3rds and 7ths) right from the beginning. But it got too difficult and they gave up. I’m happy to say that there’s a better way to learn jazz piano! Here are some lessons that will get you started the way I myself got started, by playing 7ths chords in root position. It’s easier, sounds great, and is in fact a necessary stage in your musical development. Using the basic 7th chords for a while will also enable you to go farther in the long run, when we get to those fancy voicings in a more natural way!

Testimonials

I’m so happy I found Ron’s lessons online. His demeanor, impressive background, and ability to convey the material in such an easy to assimilate manner is exactly what I was hoping to find in an instructor. My playing is improving by leaps and bounds!

Nowhere else – and I’m including all the jazz books I’ve purchased over the years and various websites I’ve been a member of – does anyone present improvising the way Ron does! His lessons are fabulous and his piano playing inspires me to finally attain my dream of becoming a jazz pianist. I highly recommend this ‘gem’ of a website to anyone who wants to learn jazz piano!
