Winner of six Grammy Awards (and 15 nominations), Gary Burton is recognized as one of the best improvisers in the jazz world and known as an inspiring educator. Burton codifies a sought-after "Berklee approach" that has been at the core of Berklee's jazz improvisation curriculum for decades.

In this video, Pat Metheny and Chick Corea talk about their extensive relationship with Gary Burton, their experience working and learning from Gary over the years, and Gary's new online course, Gary Burton: Jazz Improvisation.

Gary Burton: Jazz Improvisation begins with an overview of the mental processes that take place in improvisation and goes on to provide an explanation and understanding of harmony and melodic construction that is unique to improvising as compared to the performance of written music. You'll learn how to shape solos, use dynamics effectively, and employ reharmonization techniques, in addition to how to analyze and interpret songs, make effective performance decisions, and work successfully with an ensemble.
