{"product_id":"berklee-new-standards-101-lead-sheets-by-women-composers-373731","title":"New Standards: 101 Lead Sheets By Women Composers","description":"\u003ch3\u003eSummary of This Book\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"New Standards\" brings together a wide range of jazz compositions written by women, carefully curated by Terri Lyne Carrington, founder and artistic director of the Berklee Institute of Jazz and Gender Justice. Designed as a complementary (and often alternative) resource to the traditional standards repertoire, this collection aims to broaden the musical references used in classes, ensemble workshops, jam sessions, or professional contexts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book spans nearly a century of creation: it notably includes a piece by Lil Hardin Armstrong dated 1922, while also featuring titles written in 2021 by young artists from the Institute. This chronological breadth connects the history of jazz to its contemporary evolutions, juxtaposing different aesthetics, approaches to harmony, sense of groove, and ways of constructing melodies conducive to improvisation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith 101 compositions, \"New Standards\" highlights a remarkable diversity of voices: from recognized figures such as Mary Lou Williams, Alice Coltrane, Geri Allen, and Maria Schneider, to current voices like Esperanza Spalding, Cecile McLorin Salvant, Cassandra Wilson, Dianne Reeves, Dorothy Ashby, Nubya Garcia, and Nicole Mitchell, among many others. The collection also celebrates the global dimension of jazz by including composers from international scenes, such as Chilean tenor saxophonist Melissa Aldana and Japanese-American pianist Toshiko Akiyoshi. A valuable tool to refresh your programs, diversify your influences, and nurture a more personal playing style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr) minmax(0,1fr)}table[data-wb-spec] colgroup{display:none}table[data-wb-spec] tbody,table[data-wb-spec] tr{display:contents}table[data-wb-spec] td{display:block;overflow-wrap:anywhere;grid-row:var(--wb-l);background-color:var(--wb-lb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[data-r]{grid-row:var(--wb-r);background-color:var(--wb-rb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[colspan=\"2\"]{grid-column:1\/-1}table[data-wb-spec] td:empty{display:none}}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:2;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMusical Genre\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eJazz, Blues, Soul\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eSheet music\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:1;--wb-r:3;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComposer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eVarious (101 compositions by female jazz composers)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGenre\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eJazz sheet music (collection of compositions \/ \u0026quot;new standards\u0026quot;)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:2;--wb-r:4;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eTerri Lyne Carrington (curation)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Berklee","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54358442475795,"sku":"373731","price":42.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/a7e8483b392a9e67069762ffc8cf271f90d7f84e_HL00369515.jpg?v=1789470052","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/berklee-new-standards-101-lead-sheets-by-women-composers-373731","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
