I must say for someone is both a ‘struggling’ jazz player as well as a music educator who has limited time with my jazz students, this is a very refreshing approach. For me, this will I believe help me to break through the overly-confusing myriad of ‘approaches’ to improving my improvisation skills ,and am equally confident that I can convey this concept successfully to my students. I thank you for this effort.
My parents said, "Ok, we'll buy you those drums, but you're gonna take lessons & learn how to read music like a real musician." I did, and I was SO far ahead of the curve as I branched into keyboards, flute, sax, guitar...anything I wanted to pick up & learn well enough to help me make a living. JUST focusing or READING rhythm, at first, is REALLY worth your focus for awhile..whatever you play & wherever you are on the skill curve. ..Just sayin' ...Thanks for your time.

Probably the best thing I've seen to break out of bad habit of playing the same all the time. Thank you!
The demonstration on this particular tune is a very nice one for me
I recommend melodic rhythms by Jerry Bergonzi, top
Very good lesson
Very good exercise. Thank you, Brent. The best for you this Xmas and the New Year.
GREAT MAN !!!TANKS🙏🙏🙏!!!
great lesson! Rhythm is so important!
The technique is great, it was very well described in one of David Baker´s books.
Thanks, very helpful
Great lesson! Thank you!
Thank you, very good lesson! And yet, melodic intonation appears before the melody, along with the rhythm.
