The next spotlight from our recent Jazz Trio Workshop is on Alex Zurl.
Earlier this month, I brought in two professionals: Jeff Knoettner (Piano) and Rob Swanson (Bass) to perform with some of the studio's members. Total immersion in playing at a professional level - there is no way to simulate it - so we learn by DOING. Education by action.
Here, Alex Zurl performs the classic "My Girl", staying deep in the pocket and serving the song.
