Summary of This Collection
This jazz collection with CD, composed by Jaap Kastelein, is aimed at instrumentalists wishing to approach or consolidate their jazz practice within a guided framework. The instrumentation (clarinet, saxophone, trumpet, or baritone in treble clef) makes it a particularly versatile tool: you can use it with your main instrument or integrate it into a small ensemble while maintaining a common support. Thanks to the CD, the practice becomes more concrete than with sheet music alone: you play "in the style," with accompaniment that helps stabilize the tempo, improve timing, and refine phrasing. The EASY-INTERMEDIATE level allows progress without discouragement, focusing on key elements of the jazz language (swing, accents, articulations, breathing, and rhythmic regularity). In just 10 pages, the collection goes straight to the essentials and is well-suited for use in lessons, workshops, or targeted practice sessions focusing on interpretation and listening. The French language facilitates understanding of the instructions for French-speaking students and teachers.
