Jazz Essentials



90 pages, Item number 1700600DQ, $12.95

This is not a book of sheet music! "Jazz Essentials" is a very laid-back theory book, focusing on "nuts & bolts instruction for the jazz & pop musician". This 8 1/2" by 7 1/2" book has lots of examples and illustrations, and gives a thorough introduction to jazz theory to any musical performer. If you are annoyed by "serious" theory books, then try this one!

Despite the meaning of the word "improvisation," jazz musicians require a great deal of practice and preparation to successfully improvise. This book is ideal for teaching you methods and techniques to successfully improvise on your own.
 
This is not another scale or jazz patterns book. These exercises are based on the improvisations of great jazz artists. Musical ideas are extracted from these excerpts and developed into exercises designed to prepare you to play passages using the extracted idea. The ideas are developed using common compositional devices, thus training you in the art of composition and in the art of developing an idea. These skills, exercises and compositional techniques are then applied to etudes and put into useful musical settings.
 
This book will help accomplish the following objectives: 1) Playing the exercises will develop physical technique, muscle memory, and mental skills; 2) Having the exercises juxtaposed with musical examples expedites the connections and reinforces the practical function of the exercises; 3) Thinking through the development of the exercises, seeing from where the exercises were extracted and applying common compositional devices to the extracted ideas, will help you acquire the technique of composing "spontaneously."
