Interested in studying saxophone, flute, clarinet, oboe or improvisation with Jay?  You can, and you can choose to do it one of three ways:

1. You can arrange to meet with me in-person for a one-on-one lesson.  I'm available as my schedule permits in Irvine or Long Beach, CA. If you live in this area or will be in the area, feel free to to contact me at saxflyr@cox.net to arrange a lesson or series of lessons. 
2. You can take an online webcam lesson via Skype with me, anytime that works mutually for both of us.  Here's what you'll need:
-A high-speed internet connection on your computer
-A webcam with microphone, or a webcam and separate microphone set up
-A Skype account and connection
-A PayPal account
Once you've assemble all of these items and accounts, please email me at saxflyr@cox.net to arrange a trial run.  We'll make sure the set up works for both of us, and then we'll arrange for a lesson time from there.  Once your payment is received at my PayPal account, you'll be all set. 
3. You can record yourself, either audio or video, and send me the file.  When we set this up I will inteview you and ask you to record selected material for me.  Once I've received the file, and your payment at my PayPal account, I'll record my suggestions and demonstrations on a video file and send that back to you. 
I will also be beginning a master class once a week, on the following topics:  Ear Training; Saxophone performance techniques;  Woodwind Doubling; Improvisation.  These will rotate from week to week.  Check back on the Calendar and the New and Events on the title page of this website for dates as I set them up.  At first this will be in the Irvine, CA area, but as things develop check back for doing this as an online web conference!!
I look forward to the opportunity to work with you!!!
