Jeff Colella (’78)
Colella has released —Palmetto Publishing—a book about how we learn and understand music that turns some of the most sophisticated ideas in jazz philosophy into practical, accessible advice. In this collection of essays on a variety of musical topics—from improvisation and harmonic analysis to comping, time concepts, piano technique, phrasing and more—“it’s my hope that the book will prove helpful to musicians and teachers in general, regardless of instrument or stylistic preferences. I talk about how we learn, teach and perform the music we love,” Colella says.
