About Jude
Hello! My name is Jude Mayer, and I am a jazz bassist, composer, and music educator offering online jazz double bass lessons.
As a performing musician and student of advanced music theory and jazz analysis through the University of Arkansas, I focus on connecting technical development on the instrument with a deeper understanding of harmony, rhythm, and improvisation. My playing experience as a working jazz bassist informs my teaching, especially in real-world performance situations, ensemble playing, and developing a strong time feel.
In lessons, we can work on fundamentals such as tone production, intonation, shifting, and left-hand/right-hand technique, as well as jazz-specific skills like walking bass lines, chord tone outlining, voice leading, transcribing, and improvisation. I also emphasize ear training and harmonic understanding so that students can confidently navigate jazz standards and live performance settings.
My goal is to help each student become a more confident, musical, and independent bassist, with the tools to perform and think like a jazz musician. Whether you're just starting to develop your jazz playing or looking to deepen your improvisational voice, I tailor lessons to your needs and help you grow from there.
