in the style of Bach By Chris Standring
Hi I'm Chris Standring and I run PlayJazzGuitar.com
- the website you have just landed at. I've been ensconced in
the jazz guitar world for about 25 years now. I've made many records
and it's time to give back a little. I'm very interested in creating
new effective ways to teach the jazz guitar language and since
the success of my Play What You Hear
CD ROM program I am intrigued to be able to capitalize on that
interactive idea to present new programs in the future.

great resource for all players wanting to expand their melodic
