Are these lessons the right level for me?
At Open Studio, we offer courses from Novice/Level 1 through Advanced/Level 4. Sometimes, lessons within a course can span between difficulty levels. In general, the legend below can be used to navigate our course levels:
LEVEL 1 (novice)
- You can play the instrument at a basic level, or in another genre
- You may not be able to read music or chord charts
- You aren't familiar with jazz concepts or terms
LEVEL 2 (beginner)
- You can play the instrument but maybe not improvising yet
- You may be able to read some music, charts or lead sheets
LEVEL 3 (intermediate)
- Well on your way to mastery, and looking for new ideas with improvisation and high-level concepts
LEVEL 4 (advanced)
- You have mastered your instrument, but you're looking for new inspiration in advanced improvisational techniques
