My Experience Going to Music School (How it Helped and How It Didn't)

So, because I know the audience that generally listens to this podcast, I know that a majority of you, or at least a good percentage of you have never been to a music school before, and so, you may be wondering, what was it that I missed in music school that would help me become a better jazz musician.

So, in today's episode, what I wanna do is just talk about my experience in music school and things that it really helped me with and how I was able to improve. But I also do wanna share some things that did not help me at all,

I wanna let you all on the inside, save you the 4 1/2 years it took me to get my degree, as well as some of the lessons.

In this episode:

1. Being Exposed to Advanced Players

2. Music Theory

3. Repertoire

4. The gaps that music school filled
