Welcome to NeffMusic. Over the past year, this site has grown into one of the top resources of online lessons for jazz musicians and sax players of all levels. In the beginning this site was just a place for me to post clips of mouthpieces for my fellow saxophone players. Soon students were emailing and asking if I could record lessons for them. As I recorded lessons and gained students around the world I came up with the main concept for NeffMusic. I would record lessons on a variety of subjects that I or my students would ask about and post them on my site for all the members to take advantage of. As the idea blossomed and I recorded more and more lessons(including now video lessons) the popularity of the site increased. Hundreds of people from around the world are now members and check in regularly to get new lessons for their own enjoyment and development. There are many lessons on jazz improvisation that can be applied to all instruments as well as many saxophone specific lessons. These lessons are suitable for the beginner, intermediate or advanced student. What ever level you are at, you can find something here to meet your needs. Lessons can be purchased one by one or if you choose, you can become a NeffMusic Member and get four lessons a month at a 50% discount! You can browse the store to see all the lessons available and free 1 minute samples.
As well as providing online lessons I have also written six jazz improvisation books to date. These books are:
The Best II-V-I Patterns-Major
The Best II-V-I Patterns-Minor
Mastering the Dominant Bebop Scale
Approach Note Velocity-Major
Approach Note Velocity-Minor
The Ultimate II-V-I Primer
These books are available as pdf's and have sold incredibly well. Here are some of the great reviews for them. They can also be purchased in the NeffMusic store.
Although I am a saxophone teacher, many of my lesson can be applied to other instruments. I have many students who play other instruments and love the new approach and concept I bring them because of my saxophone style.
I hope you enjoy your time here. Feel free to browse and see if NeffMusic might be a good place for you to continue your jazz education!
