    Yes, it is possible to learn jazz without reading music. Many jazz musicians learn through listening and playing along with recordings, also known as “ear training”. They also learn by playing with other musicians and picking up licks and riffs by ear. However, reading music can be a valuable skill for learning and communicating complex musical ideas. It is up to the individual musician to decide what learning methods work best for them.
