Description

In this lesson I  show you 10 A section Rhythm Changes solos that I’ve written out. These solos are are a collection of great lines that I have collected from the likes of Bob Berg, Hank Mobley, John Coltrane,  Johnny Griffin and others. this lesson originated from  having students work on Rhythm Changes and I would give them a line to memorize for the week. i found that by memorizing a great line the students could get a better feel and idea of how a solo on rhythm Changes should flow and  move. A PDF of all 10 lines is included in the lesson and I demonstrate all the lines on my tenor sax. Enjoy! (Audio Lesson)

    Mansax – July 16, 2009

    This is a fantastic lesson that addresses many different aspects of playing over Rhythm Changes. By selecting and demonstrating the solo ideas of the masters, Steve’s lesson not only gives me a repertoire of phrases to play, but by shedding these lines my ears start to hear the changes and my fingers learn to move in 4ths. Since Rhythm Changes are something we all have to come to terms with, this lesson is an indispensable addition to my daily practice. Well done and thanks Steve!

    Stephen – April 15, 2011

    I couldn’t agree with Mansax more, this lesson has given me more enjoyment than anything I have previously worked on. The 10 phrases Steve has given to work on are all different but connected with the same style. I love playing them and feel that some of the effort has embedded itself into my playing. I have been working on these for a month and now have them all memorized, (I have detailed how I did this in my forum progress). Steve has commented he will be adding several more lessons on this subject shortly, I can’t wait!

    Kindest Regards Stephen (selmerc*)

I just joined Neff Music last month. I can’t tell you how excited I’ve been to be able to pick back up on lessons. I’ve been in a rut and you got me out! I’ve especially appreciated the Lesson Path section. It was so clear I knew exactly where to jump in and start. Many many thanks!
Karin

Steve, just a note to say thanks.

I’ve been playing a long time, but your material, laid out in such a thoughtful way, helps me to understand concepts in a new and deeper way.

You are a true gift to the jazz community.

60 lessons and going strong,

Kevin Ledbetter

Hi Steve, I can’t express just how much I appreciate your teaching. My playing has improved so much over the past year since I have been studying and practicing with your lessons. It is possible to teach an old dog new tricks, these lessons are proof! Thanks, Michael Byington

Hello Steve, I’m getting so much out of your lessons and books, amazing how much one may think one knows, there is always a new frontier or new way to view something you think you had somewhat down. You have taken it all to a new level and am so grateful. Your lessons are so down to earth and understandable and clear!  Thanks so much Steve! Cheers, Eddie

Two years later I began a search for a sax teacher and happened to come across Steve Neff when I was searching YouTube for sax teachers.  I went to neffmusic.com and was very impressed with the lessons Steve Neff was offering.  The concept of selecting lessons was an approach that I thought was unique and purchased a few lessons.  I liked the lessons so much that I signed-up for a 6 month package. I was very happy with all the lessons I selected.  I also purchased Steve’s book Mastering the B… Read more

Just wanted to send you a quick note to say thank you for being you, your playing, your website and your desire to help others. I’m a professional musician in the US Army and I’ve visited your website almost every day since discovering it a couple of months ago. Your lessons are profound and easy to use. I’ve purchased most of your PDF books and now am starting to delve more into the video and audio lessons.  Thank you for being a great resource!

I want to let you know that your instructional material is transforming my playing.  It is an immense pleasure to learn and play now, and I can’t tell you how grateful I am. The instructional material I got from you is by far the best of any I own (and I have over 100 books, DVDs, and what not). I literally can’t thank you enough! Deric

Absolutely the best learning experience in my 40 years of playing.These books are awesome!!
Alfred LaBella
Just to say thanks for your advice and lessons.  I’ve just read your amazing story.  I really appreciate what you do in regards to teaching.  I have bought a couple of your lessons and frankly they’re undersold.   I’ve learned much more with these two lessons than with 2 years of sax teachers.   Thanks so much………..
Mike
I just started looking at my lessons and I have to say, dude you are awesome.  I ABSOLUTELY will learn from you!  I started the tenor about 1 ½ yrs ago and have since picked up an alto, and more recently a soprano.  I spend most of the time on the tenor, followed by soprano, and have only gotten to the alto a few times.  I think I’ll be sticking with tenor.  I’m having a great time and hope one day to play well enough to get regular gigs.  I’ve been playing keys for about 35 years (… Read more
