Jazz bassist Rufus Reid teaches intermediate students some of the more in-depth techniques and styles of bass playing. He introduces music theory, bass-line construction, rhythm changes, blues changes, and modal music, and shows students how to apply the concepts to their performances of such classic jazz compositions as "Have You Met Miss Jones," "Embraceable You," and his own "It's the Nights I Like." ~ Sarah Block, All Movie Guide
