Summary of This Book
With Cannonball Adderley - Omnibook, you have an essential resource to study jazz improvisation through the playing of one of the greatest alto saxophonists. This collection brings together nearly 50 recorded solos, transcribed "note for note" to capture the swing, accents, rhythmic emphases, and some of the articulations as performed on record.
The content covers a wide range of musical situations: bebop and hard bop themes, blues grooves, standards, and iconic pieces from the jazz repertoire. You will be able to work on Cannonball's melodic logic, his sense of placement, his sequences of arpeggios and scales, as well as his ideas for variation on chord changes. Among the included titles are "Ah-Leu-Cha," "Oleo," "Milestones," "So What," "Straight No Chaser," "Work Song," and "Waltz For Debby."
Whether your goal is transcription, expanding your vocabulary, understanding cadences, or developing a more authentic language in your choruses, this book lends itself both to "measure-by-measure" work and to comparative study (motifs, placements, chromaticism, resolutions) to be reinvested later in your improvisations.
