Nice course

Good info, progresses a little too fast. Unfortunately the smartsheets don't work correctly

Niko Ehrenburg verified

Loved it

I enjoyed the structure of the course which helped me diving into learning lead sheets and creating my own arrangements.

Amazingly Fun and Useful!

Great lesson for people who haven't really learned that much songs. It's great fun to play the tune and not too hard for newbies to be turned off. Looking really forward to working on the harder version of the song now.

Excellent Lead Sheet Course

This is an excellent beginner’s Lead Sheet course. Jonny takes you through a series of lessons that are thoughtfully laid out. They build on each other in bite size pieces, they’re easy to understand and Jonny has you playing musically from the start. This is my very first standard that I can proudly add to my repertoire. Looking forward to learning much more with this leaning track….thank you!

Excellent

The structures and methods explained seem so free, not rigid. Seems like the basis of improvisation.

opened some doors

Have been playing fly me to the moon in the past =- and taking this course opened up a lot of options for fill-ins and strategies for soloing....

Excellent course for beginners / intermediate

I loved all the concepts that can be applied to other songs, and it is a good foundation for the advanced course on Fly Me To The Moon

Widened my understanding and solidified my skills

Thanks Jonnie for a great course. It was fun to add this swinging arrangement to the songs I can play. I especially liked your steady build-up and your explanation of the left hand accompaniment and rythm. Also thanks for the beginnings and endings. Very helpful for other songs!

Fun to learn

Great teaching, easy to understand, learnt so much from lesson 1 through to lesson 5... I have improved my playing of this song a lot - all thanks to this course. Had never played this song before so it has been a lot of fun to learn it step by step.

Got me going and made me stomp my foot and smile!

Having played classical piano at a decent enough level as a young lad, my fingers still wake up from the arthritis surprisingly well. This course did not overwhelm theoretically but still gave som key chord extensions where you would really miss it it they weren't there. And Jonny shows us a couple of very well chosen phrases that really swings and inspires that ol' right hand to go for more. In short, well thought out progression of manageable difficulties. Take your time, and enjoy the ride!
