Description

There is nothing cooler than having your approach notes mastered!  Back about 10 years ago, I had decided that I really needed to get my act together and start practicing again.  I decided to pick one main focus and to practice like crazy.  The area of jazz improvisation I picked was Approach Note patterns.   I wrote out every conceivable approach note pattern I could think of in the key  of C and started practicing.  Soon I found myself totally freed up and liberated from playing my old cliche lines and patterns.  I was playing new lines and ideas and my technique was better than ever……..

Out of that experience came my “Approach Note Velocity” books.  As I started giving online video lessons, I started receiving requests to do some lessons on this approach note concept.   This is a new series that I’m starting to teach how to work through the “Approach Note Velocity” material.  In this series I will take you step by step through the process in each lesson.   I have found that many students enjoy how the approach note concept sounds but when it comes to applying it to their playing it can be difficult.  This  will be a step by step lesson series where I walk you through the process of how to learn and integrate these concept into your own playing.  In order to get the most out of this series you will need the “Approach Note Velocity” books, Jamey Aebersold Vol. 24 “Major and Minor”and  Jamey Aebersold Vol. 21 “Getting it Together”.

In this series, I have 13 30-45 minute long lessons teaching you how to best work with the approach note concept.  The series is ongoing but these 13 lessons will give you a great start with tips on how to work on the materials in the books.

In order to get the most out of these lessons you should  already have a good grasp of your scales and chord tones in all keys and have my “Approach Note Velocity Volume 1 & 2 books.  If you master the material within these lessons and books, you will find a freedom and dexterity throughout all 12 keys that you never had before.  (13 30-45 Minute Video Lessons)

Testimonials

By the way, BIG COMPLIMENTS to you, Steve! Not only are you a great player, you are also a great teacher! I, too, am a woodwinds player/teacher. I have new inspiration to play and teach because of you. The concepts and “thinking” is similar to what I already learned in College, but hearing you explain and PLAY the concepts REALLY MAKES THE DIFFERENCE! Also, your written patterns are more interesting than other books I have seen! Keep up the good work. I will be recommending your sit… Read more
I will be recommending your site to others!
Steve’s monthly lessons are entirely valuable. Without brow beating, he tells you all the stuff you deep down know you really should be working on, instead of just relying on the same old patterns. In spite of the fact that you’re taking a video lesson, Steve’s presentation is comfortable and “real”. In a little more than a year, he’s developed a library of lessons that seem to offer any player a lifetime’s worth of practice material. I’m just glad I stumbled upon it.… Read more

I can’t say enough about my membership at Neff Music. Steve has taken the mystery out of playing the saxophone well and improvising both jazz and rock music. Like most struggling players I have a load of all sorts of books on my shelf just gathering dust. Books that I didn’t understand or know how to put to use…or just have the time to go threw them. Steve’s lessons really simplify things and he puts it in a way that I can understand. They inspire me to keep pushing and having him as my guide or… Read more

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

It is so refreshing to have a great player, who can provide lessons and examples in a manner which is understandable to most any enthusiastic saxophonist who is ready to improve. not just the, do this, do that, memorize this, memorize that… while all that is absolutely necessary, you go on to give reasons and examples to explain and validate why you have to do all of these things, the benefits, if you will… that is the key for me, you tell, explain, demonstrate, explain some more, you give perso… Read more

Hi Steve,

First, I want to thank you for all of your great lessons. They are like a “For Dummies” version of all the books on my shelf. The lessons break things down into manageable pieces, and give me the confidence that I’m practicing the right pieces. I’m starting to make progress.   Thank You,   Kim

I must say again how much I appreciate all your material. Including the video tutorials. It help keep me focused and knowing what to aim for. And your laid back teaching style appeals to me too. 

Thanks

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!
