Thanks to today's technology and programs like Skype, online lessons are now a reality and an outstanding alternative to travelling great distances. Rich offers "chops" and/or "improv" lessons online as well as in person. Here's a "testimonial" from a student in the U.K.: Hello my name is Jeff, I'm a trombonist from London and I have just had an online lesson from Rich Willey. For brass players in England or the Continent who want to study a brass "method" from someone who had direct experience from a recognised master, like Richard did, this is a fantastic way to work. We used Skype so we could see and hear each other fine. We had a few technical hiccups but they didn't spoil or get in the way of the lesson. Here are the benefits as I see them: 1. No $$$$ with airfare and hotels! 2. No tiredness from travelling, just arrange a mutually convenient time to get together 3. No missed gigs because you are away 4. Much better than just working with "the book" On a personal note I found Rich a lovely guy to work with. He is clear and succinct, very encouraging, demonstrated everything patiently and gave clear direction. I`m really excited about getting on with the studies he sent over to me on PDF files. If anyone else is considering working on the Reinhardt method I would heartily recommend both online lessons and Rich's teaching.
