Understanding the Language of Music

I count it a blessing to be able to read, write and understand the language of music. I've had many teachers along the way, most notably from Duke Ellington School in DC and the jazz program at UNLV. 

And I grow more grateful to them with each passing year! 

This knowledge is how I'm making the transition away from relying on my lame guitar skills into communicating my ideas to a band. 

Such a small effort but very important. 

It's so cool to see my music on real music paper haha! The tune on the screen is a praise song I wrote to keep me grounded before writing out some blues!
