Does the voice inside your head start saying, "I could never do that", when you listen to the stride and ragtime piano giants of the past?

I’ve walked into a lot of bars, lounges and restaurants and her stride and ragtime piano being played. And what is it most of us say in our heads? 

There’s no way.

There’s literally no way I could play like that.

I would listen intently to their LH, zooming back and forth across the piano with a contorted look on my face that just says, “How?!”

How is this possible?

Not to mention the RH is also playing burning lines and movements at the same time! 

This would happen constantly listening to the great Art Tatum, James P. Johnson, Scott Joplin, Teddy Wilson, and others.

It seemed like sorcery. I mean how could all of THAT be played by one person. 

Wouldn’t it be great to understand the magic? 

I needed to know.

Fortunately I studied and work hard and started to understand the easy, methodical strategies that produced a complex stride and ragtime sound. 

And even MORE fortunately, one of our Jazz Piano School Staff Educators named Sterling Cozza just happened to be taking a deep dive on all of it! 

BING! 

Let’s create a new specialty course on all of it!

Let’s pull back the curtain to the wizard of STRIDE & RAGTIME!

What Our Members Are Saying

Jazz Piano School Is Different

Yes there are other jazz piano websites and education on the internet, but Jazz Piano School is unique because it was specifically built to solve a common problem among jazz students. That problem is lack of structured, organized, and step-by-step jazz education that provides us with clear details and practice exercises so we know exactly what to do in order to get better and accomplish our dream. 

We’ve wasted 15 years, jumping around youtube videos, switching teachers, guessing, doubting, feeling frustrated, embarrassed, insecure, and crappy because of the way jazz education is taught. 

In other words, we’ve been in the trenches so you don’t have to! Our mission is to provide you with the most comprehensive, systematic, easy to follow education and courses so you can quickly and efficiently apply what you’re learning and start seeing results immediately! If this sounds appealing then you welcome! You’ve found your home. 🙂
