John Patitucci is on the cover of the new Bass Musician Magazine! In this in depth interview, Rick Suchow asks John about his online bass lessons and how it all came about, as well as his background teaching bass and where his passion comes from. 

As the article states in the introduction, jazz bass is becoming more and more popular - and with that has come more and jazz bass teachers. As Rick Suchow writes, "When it comes to jazz bass, few are more known, more inspiring and more worthy than John Patitucci."

Indeed, which is why we're so honored to have him teaching bass lessons online at ArtistWorks.  Because just as the article states: "If you have the opportunity to study jazz with John Patitucci, why in the world would you ever want or need to go elsewhere?"

There's a great in-depth interview with John Patitucci on All About Jazz. He's asked about his definition of jazz, acoustic vs. electric bass, as well as working with musicians like Wayne Shorter, Chick Corea, and McCoy Tyner. John also talks about how he became involved doing online bass lessons with ArtistWorks, and how it compares to his prior experience teaching bass.
 
"I thought that it was very interesting to have a situation where people could study with you from anywhere in the world, in a way that was more complete and just so well thought out: the idea about creating a community with the knowledge of bass and creating not only a little academy where they can study bass with someone that they wanted to study with, who also had a particular view point, but also the students would get to know each other, too, and share the experiences and what they learned from it, and benefit from each other's questions. I have been teaching all my life, but not like this. This is a different concept because of the way that it is set up, being able to send a [video] to me, and I am able to film the response as well; all the answers are posted on the site, together with the questions, and anybody who belongs to the site can look at them any time." - John Patitucci
