About
Jazz Improv Magazine & About the new title
Jazz Inside is brought to you by the same team as the previous title. It features the same foundational understandings and commitments, the same select group of writers, and will be continuing the same tradition of delivering comprehensive interviews, exhaustive one-of-a-kind cover features, reviews of musical products and CDs, columns, motivational articles and quotes - all in an eye-appealing, easy-to-read layout and design. I am continuing the tradition of providing an enhanced companion CD which features tracks by leading and emerging artists and an e-book. For those of you who make music, the e-book features 100 to 200 pages of instructional articles on improvisation, music theory and more, along with song lead sheets, transcriptions of improvised solos by influential artists, arrangements and musical exercises. Essentially, those elements that you have come to enjoy and that I assembled to make Jazz Improv unique, I have infused into Jazz Inside Magazine. One of the most important reasons for the new title was so that I could publish a periodical that could reach and influence the broadest demographic that populates the jazz landscape. For now, I have suspended publication under the Jazz Improv banner to make room for growth and expansion. The word “improv” also had a connotation that seemed to limit appeal only to musicians, even though the majority of our content is equally valuable to non-musicians as well as creators of the music. I wanted to do away with the false assumption by many non-musician jazz lovers that because there was some music in the magazine, that the other 200 pages of interviews and reviews were somehow not for them. Actually, a number of readers who didn’t play music commented that the analyses and instructional articles, side-by-side with the interviews and other content, actually helped give them a better understanding of the music that they love—or an inside view. They were able to get inside the creative process of their favorite musicians. In 1997, when I founded Jazz Improv Magazine, the sub-title was “Timeless Music, Motivation and Ideas.” I wanted the magazine to embody much more than the surface elements of, for example, just what scales or chords an artist might play, or what type or brand or model reeds or drum sticks or piano a musician might be using to perform. I wanted readers to be motivated and inspired by ideas that transcend time. Contributing to those unique qualities embodied by the magazine was the synergy of an array of concepts – and uniquely created by artists and musicians for readers. That synergy involves the combination of the music in the magazine, the concepts of and instructional articles about improvisation, the ideas about personal development, motivation, the philosophies of great thinkers, the photos, and the resultant energy. Initially, I began publishing motivational quotes and common sense ideas in little quote boxes—to remind myself how I wanted to live. Readers loved them and found them to be guiding lights in their own lives. The majority of our relationships in life are transactional ones—the buying and selling of goods and services. But, the truly meaningful relationships in life are transformational ones. My intent with Jazz Improv was, as it is with Jazz Inside Magazine and Jazz Inside NY Magazine is to create a publication that enables readers to have some sort of transformational experience. Now, visit the Jazz Inside Magazine website to get access to the array of ideas, entertainment and experiences that you’ll discover in Jazz Inside publications. www.jazzinsidemagazine.com All the best, Eric Nemeyer
