- "In his book, First Steps to Jazz Improvisation, Allan Meyerson demonstrates a straightforward and easy conversational style of writing. His lovingly crafted work is motivational, instructional and unintimidating. I hope he will continue to write more books in the future on the topic of Jazz."

- "I've been playing clarinet for many years and can read music and know my scales. I have several books on jazz improvisation but they all are too complicated for me. This is the first book that gave me a step by step way to practice chords and scales and have positive results."

One Day Workshop Reviews
- "Great workshop! Allan put together a workbook and class consisting of an orderly, step-by-step, logical method suitable for beginners yet challenging enough to give me enough info to keep me busy for a long time. He packed a lot into seven hours and obviously loves playing and teaching jazz. I feel I definitely got my money's worth."
- "I really enjoyed the day and would endorse your course to others. It's obvious you love and know music.
Repeating the most important aspects of the course many times was a great way to drive the info home because we all need to hear stuff over and over before we integrate it as the true takeaway. You did this in spite of the volume of material presented."
