Jazz Guitarist Steve Hemsworth -(Leeds Jazz Orchestra, Sonny Intervals Duo)

I play the parts using combinations of four guitars and an electric bass: Gibson L5, Fender Telecaster, classical nylon from a luthier named Nakade, steel-string acoustic from a luthier named Sauve, and a Fender Jazz Bass.  Any of my original tunes are freely available for download with the Creative Commons license.  If I didn't write the tune, I didn't make it available for download -- I want to respect intellectual property.  

I'm also active in photography.  The link to my photos is tomhealy.smugmug.com.  

I’ve had the good fortune to study in the past with some excellent teachers: Don Mock (one of the original Guitar Institute of Technology, GIT, instructors); Jay Roberts (son of GIT founder Howard Roberts; GIT is now the Musicians Institute in LA); and, Rich Falco (Rich joined the music faculty of Worcester Polytechnic Institute in 1979; Director of Jazz Studies.).

And, I've been able to attend some terrific clinics from guitar masters such as: Jim Hall, Pat Martino, John Schofield, Larry Coryell, Ulf Wakenius, Howard Alden, Frank Vignola, John Pisano, John Pizzarelli, Vic Juris, Corey Christiansen, Kevin Eubanks, and others.
