Aaron,

Excellent advice from all above. However, now that I understand your desire for folk/baroque/jazz I may become somewhat of a "wet blanket."

I'm a classically trained woodwind player, a strong jazz musician, and a successful teacher. But if I took you on as a student, I would first have to be sure you have command of the instrument and this means scales, drills, and etudes at first.

You can't jump to playing all the things you mention unless you have have the basic skills (aka Tough Love). This is the longer path but the soundest approach.

PS If you have not seen the classic sports movie "Hoosiers" you need to see how the new coach (played by Gene Hackman) first worked with the Hickory BB team. You've got to have sound fundamentals to progress in anything.
