The format is perfect for me. I learn best by focusing on a small "chunk" until I master it. I am overwhelmed at time with other with other format--too much information in too short of time.

As a comeback musician with a preference for Jazz, this podcast has been THE one I use to improve. Nick’s short, but very educational, format helps keep the listener focused with actionable steps. It’s so nice to be able to review and select the episode topics in whatever order works best for you. The Patreon subscription to receive the PDF examples, exercises and audio examples is a bargain!

I just discovered this pod! I’m a bass player and jazz lover and this is a terrific resource. I really enjoyed the content of the caravan lesson!

I have really started using Nick's info and it is bringing me back to how I played years ago. certainly need to do much more because i have a long way to go. even if i don't play with an episode just listening to the info is educational. I just recently listened to the episode about his technique for practicing starting at MM50 and am really excited about starting it. he's delivery is interesting and captivating and as he says "a page turner"

Love these lessons. Well crafted and useful. I also signed up on Patrician to get the PDF files. At $3 a month it is a steal, yiu can’t beat that deal. So many good ideas for what to practice.

Nick's got great content for those learning to improvise, and he really wants those who listen and put in the effort with their instruments to succeed with their musical goals. His passion and what he has to share keeps me coming back for more.

Awesome podcast! Lots of info in just a short time. Cool mixture of heavy jazz topics and light hearted jazz talk.

Impressed with this podcast so much. I am an intermediate piano student transitioning from classical to jazz and Nicks info is spot on and not presented with a bunch of sales hype like other similar podcasts.

I love this podcast. Clear, concise, and well worth $3 a month for accompanying PDFs.

Such a valuable podcast for musicians. He is really good at coming up with topics and giving an oveview of them in a concise and understandable manner . I've been a musician for 30 years, and many of these episodes have been filling in gaps in my music theory knowledge or explained things in a way that made more sense than how I originally learned them.

Finally easy to understand lessons in digestible nuggets! Keep it comin'!

I find this podcast to be extremely helpful. It gives me new things to work on and helps me find new ways to teach improvisation to my own students.

Episode 73 - Contrafacts. This lesson provided straight forward suggestions and explanateions that I can actually put to use. Short and to the point. I am looking forward to part two next week when Nick discussed modifying the changes to fit your new melody.

In the busy day to day grind, I find this podcast motivating and easy to follow. Great Job

And I subscribe to the inner circle. Just do it. The guy is worth many times the $10/ mo.

Nick Mainella's 10 Minute Jazz Lessons are great for all musicians. Precise, to the point, and explained in a simple way for everyone to understand, this is a must-listen podcast.

love this cast. Bite-sized material that you can really master and incorporate into your playing. My one suggestion--keep all of the podcasts available in iTunes. Right now it seems only the most recent 10 stay on. Those of us who come recently would love to get back to the earlier episodes. Keep up the good work!

I am a big time fan of this Cast!!!!im a guitarist with 30 years of experience.I decided to pick up the Tenor&Alto sax,and had No experience with Woodwinds or Jazz(I'm a Bluesman).Starting from scratch,I utilized YouTube and Google for information,and by chance stumbled upon the 10 minute Jazz Lesson,and immediately took to learning approach notes,II-V phrases,and the nuts and bolts of playing Jazz and Bebop on my beloved Martin Committee III Horn's.I stream and re stream the lessons to soak up the plethora of knowledge that Nick M. Generously and graciously shares.Thank you Nick,and thank you fellow jazz and Beboppers. Trav Moody

Here for your woodshedding needs are a bunch of short, focused lessons for the aspiring jazz player. I am delighted to have found this podcast.

Nick Mainella has developed a clear, direct method of explaining and demonstrating building blocks for learning, practicing, and incorporating jazz theory in my playing. He makes it fun and demystifies harmonic concepts. The PDF materials you can download will guide practicing, and build a textbook of reference material. I look forward to each episode!

There are many excellent podcast and YouTube broadcasts about learning jazz, but this is the best

I can't afford lessons and can't believe this awesome of a lesson is free! Thank you for the .pdfs.

Great stuff here! Lots of material, clear explanations, and good pacing. Check this out. Sound quality is top-notch too.

This podcast is a great resource for anybody who is looking for some great jazz theory and improvisation information. Much of the content is pretty fundamental, but is very well done. Check it out!

If you're working on your jazz improvisation, looking for tips and insights and things to work on, you need to hear this podcast. I guaranteer you'll find lots of info, clearly explained, and lots of things to shed. And it's free! You can't afford not to check it out.

I find the podcast an extremely helpful and interesting resource as I strive to improve my improvisational skills. It's informative, concise and chocked full of practical ideas that I've already started to effectively incorporate into my playing.

bruh its like woo

This is an amazing resource for improvisers at all levels! Great information presented in an organized fashion with plain, clear, understandable language. Thank you!

Nice, bite sized chuncks of information and jazz improvisation pedagogy that will definitly improve your playing NOW! Looking forward to using this with my own students.

So much information but given out in an amount a non-pro player can digest. This podcast can be your weekly lesson especially if one works on applying the concepts to songs. Some weeks it's still too much to retain.

Thanks for all of your hard work putting this together. Would love to get all the PDFs once you subscribe. Keep up the great work.

Listen to the podcast on my way to work or in my car. The 10 minutes format is perfect. Just one suggestion: more examples on how to apply the topic of the week on real tunes. Keep posting! Thank you.

Great Podcast! Love how the lessons are short, concise, and clear on what to work on. Keep up the great work!

This podcast is great. The lessons are well thought out and concise and the PDF exercises are a great learning tool. Highly suggest this for anyone that wants to get better at jazz and their instrument!
