Summary of This Score
Christopher Norton offers here a selection of "microjazz" trios designed to bring a new life to the piano, thanks to the energy of current styles and a solid, clear, and pedagogical writing. Each piece highlights the distribution of roles among the three parts (accompaniment, melodic lines, counter-melodies, effects), to strengthen ensemble reflexes: counting, breathing together, managing entrances, phrase endings, and sound balances. The result is as fun as it is effective for lessons, group workshops, or auditions, with short and varied pieces that inspire replaying.The collection explores a palette of contrasting moods, from slow dances with a more narrative character, to lighter grooves and "country" colors. You will find among others: Bouncing Along - Slow Dance - Enchanted Castle - Net-Surfer - Country Waltz - Happiness - Donkey Ride - Daylight - Free 'n' Easy - Regrets - Strength of Feeling - Gliding
