What you will learn?

This drop-in online class will be focused on showing you how to play the wonderful jazz standard “Summertime” by George Gershwin. It will transform your piano playing by showing you how to approach this tune, playing it solo piano and with a band.

The lesson will dig deep into:

  • explaining to you all the voicings you need

  • a break-down of the harmony with a scale map showing you all the modes/scales

  • showing you how to play it solo piano

  • showing you how to play it with a band or bass player

  • two solos written by Greg for you to learn

 All topics above will be written out note-to-note and available as downloads for you once you register. Plus, you will have unlimited access to the video, so you can watch it as much as you want.

What participants are saying

“I’ve had the great fortune to be a student of Greg Lloyd’s for the past few years, during which time he has brought my piano playing to a level I didn’t think possible. Greg does more than just teach the technical aspects of jazz/blues/funk piano. He delights in passing on his deep knowledge and love for the music, can unlock the secrets of developing a great sound, and can even teach that most elusive of elements: “the groove.”

“Learning improvisation as a discipline, an exploration and pure fun.
A revelation... the lessons are always exciting and creative, the highlight of my week. I can reassure even the most daunted among you used only to playing “music written down”, Greg has come up with a system that is accessible, meticulous and pure fun. Greg wishes he had been taught this way, but was not, but you can be. Get learning and improvising!”
