Yeah in my jazz band we started bringing in charts because the prof was on some 1920's shit. You'd be surprised, he let us run some goodwin and jaco tunes. Maybe your school needs forward thinkers, who challenge the professors to play newer music.

Yeah i don't do reharms., my piano skills aren't their yet. I just rip through chord changes o i can hear them for my horn. Yeah i love jazz but gigging with legit bands seem locked up to profs and old dudes. I just moved out to NC thinking i should take a few years to hardcore practice and get lessons from the big names out here while teaching. Then try to get in a legit symphonic job, since the money is more competitive. But as you know those spots are professors too and music at their level isnt picked up with a bachelors or masters. Good isnt good enough.
