Is it me or is the bass about an eighth tone sharp. Every time the piano comes in I have whiplash. It’s so wide apart that it doesn’t harshly clash, but still.

Stop holding a Lavalier mic
As a fellow jazz piano teacher, I sincerely appreciate the wide open space you give learners to explore their own sound within each of these steps. So many teachers just talk and play through everything, without providing that opportunity for students to experiment and just play. Keep up the amazing content!
I'm loving this practice session. Very helpful!!! Thank you, sir!
Middle age influencer… lol…
Can't wait to get to the public piano with this.????
