THE OCCASION: launch of TWO brand-new JERRY BERGONZI Instructional Videos:
Creating a Jazz Vocabulary Vol.3: MELODIC RHYTHM
& SAXOPHONE MASTERY
Both Videos include 2-hour lessons + 60-min Interview and are jam-packed with detailed instruction (& 5 camera angles)
The first two unbiased (and unsolicited!) reactions/reviews we received:
“One of the best lessons I have ever had (continually have because it's on DVD).
Jerry is so clear and concise. Has helped me a ton!“
Teddy Meyer, Los Angeles, CA, via Facebook
“Jerry's approach is the best. He has so many different ways to apply basic information.
The “3 for and 3 against” technique alone is worth its weight in gold.
Almost all of the techniques also work for composition students.
As a player and a teacher Jerry's stuff is so darn easy and clear to understand it makes you want to practice.“
Denis DiBlasio, Director of Composition and Jazz Studies at Rowan University

WORKAROUND ON U.S. ADDRESSES AND “LIMITED TO U.S. ONLY”:
For legal reasons, the contest prizes are only available to those with shipping addresses in the United States… but not to fear! There’s a workaround.
If you live outside the US, you can use http://www.hopshopgo.com/. It’s a simple service that allows non-U.S. customers to have goods delivered to a U.S. address;
the goods are then forwarded to wherever you live. You actually save 10% on international shipping.
