Summary of This Method

Designed to guide pianists step by step toward freer and more authentic playing, this method in English explores the fundamentals of jazz language at the keyboard. Ray Santisi first addresses jazz chords and their characteristics (harmonic colors, extensions, functions) to help you understand what you are playing and why it sounds "jazz."

Throughout the pages, you work on essential modes and scales, as well as their practical use to build melodic lines, develop vocabulary, and gain fluency in different keys. The goal is to connect theory and practice: recognizing sounds, anticipating progressions, and establishing reliable foundations for both comping and improvising.

The method also offers technique and setup suggestions, with variations designed for solo playing: development ideas, ornamentation reflexes, and harmony principles that help navigate chord changes more effectively. The online audio supplement complements the book by facilitating listening and style integration, a valuable asset for working on groove, articulation, and musicality.

Thanks to a clear progression and a decidedly "hands-on" orientation, this jazz piano method is aimed at those who want to strengthen their harmonic foundations, enrich their chords, and progress toward more coherent improvisation, all while keeping the joy of playing at the heart of the work.
