The method includes approaches to harmony and single note improvisation, and Barry a well as being legendary pianist was also the teacher of some of the greatest musicians of all time, raining from James Jamerson and Paul Chambers to Pasquale Grasso, Emmett Cohen and Ryo Fukui. As there's been an explosion of interest in recent years in Barry and his method, I thought I'd create a general introduction based on my personal experience of studying with Barry at his workshops.
