NR

Noah R.

Ive had a lot of music teachers and saxophone teachers that all tried to get me to play the way they wanted me to play, and Ive hated it. Whats great about Jim is that he really allows you to play like yourself and he just facilitates that and acts as a catalyst. He also plays with a lot of top tier musicians in NYC so you know the information you get is coming straight from the source. I would credit Jim a lot with where Im at as a musician and with my acceptance into the programs Im in.
P.S. Jim actually practices what he preaches. If you want a great teacher, learn from the guy who does the thing you want to do.
