Thank you so much for this episode. I’ve studied with Mr. Noelle for a while and his music definitely influenced me a lot! So happy to hear you guys talk, so inspiring!
Great interview man. I love Kenny. I had the pleasure of taking a couple of lessons with him, and it was a blast. And he certainly tells you things to your face. He's not lying about that!!. I was wondering if there is any news about that brushes course he spoke about in this video? I couldn't find anything online. Cheers !
legend... Amazing drummer saw a masterclass in Rotterdam with Kenny Werner 3...So profound. He and Jon Christensen are amazing and so underrated! Keep your great interviews coming!
Mike Moreno is without a doubt my favorite of all the emerging jazz guitarists. His tone, which celebrates, but never copies the essence of Metheny, Martino and Abercrombie, his playing, and his strong compositional sense all draw from the best traditional jazz and jazz fusion, which to me places him head and shoulders above the pack. Thanks for the great interview
This is a fantastic series of lessons ! You are right, there are no shortcuts ! Thank you so much for sharing this core knowledge ! Best regards from Scotland.
