Summary of This Method
This method is a true training "set" designed to transform your practice habits, whether you are a developing musician, a demanding amateur, or an educator. The goal is clear: to provide you with a solid and immediately usable foundation to tackle new technical and musical challenges, while maintaining a musical and progressive approach through moderate tempos.
The content methodically covers all 12 keys and emphasizes the essential fundamentals for modern practice: major scales, minor scales (Dorian, harmonic, and melodic), as well as common harmonic colors (dominant 7, half-diminished, Lydian, sus4). Two very slow blues, one in F and the other in Bb, complete the set to work on phrasing, placement, and listening within a simple and highly effective musical framework.
The booklet provides a wealth of practical information: practice organization, ear training, nomenclature concepts, use of chromaticism, finger patterns, cycle exercises, fourths exercises, double-time passages, as well as guidance for bandleaders and teachers (concert, big band/jazz, orchestra, singing). Suggested backing tracks for warm-up and exercises directly linked to the written tracks enrich the progression, offering sustainable support for your practice sessions.
