And I'm curious, like the transcriptions, what was it, a range of styles and artists or were you going starting to narrow in on where your kind of your own musical voice was going at this point?

The very first transcription everybody, every student has to transcribe was Kenny Dorham, Katie's Blues.

Wow.

So there was live set.

You could choose the first or second set or both if you want to do.

And everybody was playing the same lick at the time because everybody was transcribing the solo.

And later on, it was stuff that I wanted to transcribe.

How did recording this album help that process for you as an artist to see where you are in terms of your own sound and your own musical voice?
