      Most music outside of classical is just not as technical. but that's not to say jazz, blues, country, folk, rock, "etc" is bad, it's just a difference in skill level.
      That being said, musicians in jazz have become what they hated the most, and that's being an outright snobby elitist.

    *pushes up glasses
    Excuse me, but technically the CORRECT fingering for the mordent played between 1:06 and 1:07 at the end the exercise in C major is side C, as it allows you to play the high C without flipping between LH1 and LH2. Flipping between those fingers as you did necessarily creates a blip in the sound, as it is a statistical impossibility to both lift LH1 and press LH2 at the exact same time. If you were a TRUE classical snob, you would not have allowed yourself to make such a glaring mistake.
    P.S. I really enjoyed your swing between the timestamps of 7:57 and 8:16. It sounded very jazzy. I could really tell you were feeling the music. Bravo!

    Hello nathan! I’ve known this channel since 2019 which was my freshman year in high school and you have been my role model ever since. You give to us so much and I’ve learned a lot from you.
    I am so happy to share that i was able to make it to jazz band for my school this year and have been placed as 1st tenor even though it was my first time trying out!!
    I have been moved down to alto 2 for the time being since i have never played in a jazz band before and my capacity in a swing style is quite pathetic. But I’m very excited to try out again next year and possibly play as tenor 1.
    I’m very grateful that you always do the best for us. Best of luck to you in the future and i hope you have a fantastic day!
