"Summertime," written by George Gershwin in 1934 is one of the most enduring songs of the Great American Songbook, blending elements of jazz, blues, and folk into a timeless, unforgettable melody. This makes it an amazing song for a Jazz duet.
In this first part of the Masterclass, Nick Homes shares powerful concepts and practical techniques to transform the Summertime duet into a performance that sings with expression.

My name is Nick Homes. I am a non genius musician who struggled for many years to find out the secrets of jazz improvisation. Throughout 40 years of playing, and obsessive investigation I have focussed on building systems of learning for my students so they can improve , and reach their learning goals with the highest probability whilst having fun!
