Chris is a monster sax player. Played with Maynard Ferfuson and Jill Scott just to name 2 groups. He's a Philly guy and is probably the best young tenor around here.
He'll talk Wed. about playing over dominant chords and how he approaches them. It's based on the lesson I have up here on Dominant Chords, the lesson is linked under 'Check this out'.
If you're going to come, please leave a comment here so I can get an idea on the numbers.
