Summary of This Method
This volume of the Big Band Play-Along collection offers a selection of 10 Big Band arrangements of major jazz standards, specially adapted for tenor saxophone. Designed for musicians who wish to develop their playing in a "section" context and refine their sense of style, this resource allows working on rhythmic precision, articulation, dynamics, and the cohesion typical of large ensembles.
Thanks to the included CD, you can immerse yourself in the big band universe and approach each tune with a complete musical approach: swing placement, accent management, phrase breathing, and discourse construction. It is also an excellent tool to enrich your jazz vocabulary through iconic themes while consolidating the essential foundations for interpreting standards.
The repertoire covers varied aesthetics, from blues to hard bop, with pieces that have become classics of jam sessions and stage performances: Bags' Groove (Milt Jackson), Doxy and Oleo (Sonny Rollins), Four (Miles Davis), Song For My Father (Horace Silver), Stolen Moments (Oliver Nelson), and Straight No Chaser (Thelonious Monk). An ideal method for serious practice while enjoying legendary themes.
