Follow-up

Our biggest differentiator is the personalized attention we give to each student. What drives us is results.

Develop your skills.

Improvisation is an activity that combines technique, perception, and creativity, and it can be learned or developed by musicians of any level; that is our philosophy.

Study with a specialized platform.

Our focus is to fully meet the needs of instrumentalists who want to begin or improve their improvisation studies.

Study with qualified professionals.

Our criteria for selecting teachers prioritize competence, both in the execution of the instrument and in the teaching methods used to convey the topics.

I already played the saxophone but didn't know where to start with improvisation. But with this teaching method, I learned several ways to begin: technical exercises, reading chord charts, transcribing solos, transposing phrases, and so on. This course completely changed my music.

André Leano

São Paulo - Brasil

Every day there's information; tips, phrases, repertoire, every single day. I learned to transcribe solos, transpose phrases, and that was essential in learning this language of improvisation. I embraced it wholeheartedly because it's a great opportunity.

Jean Ximenes

Rio de Janeiro - Brasil

When I started the course, I had absolutely no idea about improvisation, as I was a complete beginner. We began with small transcriptions, harmonic fields, transpositions, and chord progressions. The most important thing about this course is that it gave me the independence to stand on my own two feet. So I advise you to dive in headfirst, because this teacher is fantastic and you'll love it.

Ricardo Abreu

Ceará - Brasil

I began studying improvisation in 2009 through a groundbreaking course in the city's music scene: the Improvisation Course by Professor and Saxophonist Bob Mesquita, whose teaching methods have helped develop numerous instrumentalists and soloists throughout the country. In this course, I studied solo transcriptions, phrase application, chord progressions, harmonic fields, and much more.
