For the Serious Musican

I just ran across a great article that really puts things into prospective if you want to be a true Jazzer.  It is a must read if your serious about being a player.

Check it out at Michael Zilber.com

Some of the most revealing points being:
1.You have to practice a minimum of 4 hours a day
2.If you don't know at least 500 standards you don't know the jazz language.
3.Basics are the most important things to practice.
4.You have to put in your time.  There is no quick answer.

Lets face it learning the saxophone isn't easy and neither is Jazz.  Good Luck.
