WHAT STUDENTS SAY ABOUT THIS COURSE
A whistlestop tour of advanced concepts that I look forward to revisiting and unpacking over time.
Roy is a huge talent, really knew the subject, very personable.
Roy is the best educator I have had in music. Inspires with demonstration, turning the theory into sound. Most weeks I'll run home to my piano, busting to try this stuff out.
The content was excellent. The difference in my understanding of lead sheets content is substantial. The skills required to play jazz at a high level has been given to me. You can't get this anywhere else outside a degree and that is not possible for me. So I'm very greatful to the Open Academy.
Roy Issac is an outstanding teacher. I consider myself truly blessed for having him as my teacher. I have grown as a musician abundantly
