Summary of This Book
The Real Books are a reference for developing jazz reading skills, ear training, and vocabulary. Real Book Multi-Tracks Volume 4: Charlie Parker Play-Along offers a selection of 10 iconic bebop tunes, presented as precise and easy-to-read lead sheets: melody (head) and chord changes to get straight to the essentials.
The major asset of this volume lies in its Multi-Track backing tracks available for download. You can tailor your practice to your goals: slow down the tempo to secure fast passages, isolate difficult sections with loops, or mute/unmute instruments to work on your rhythmic placement and role within the ensemble. A tracking marker on the sheet music facilitates practice, and the melody is performed by a saxophone or trumpet on the "head in" and "head out" to help internalize the form.
This collection is perfectly suited for musicians who want to strengthen their jazz reading fluency, consolidate their understanding of harmonic progressions, and gain improvisational fluidity over an essential repertoire. Included titles: Anthropology, Blues For Alice, Confirmation, Donna Lee, K.C. Blues, Moose The Mooche, My Little Suede Shoes, Ornithology, Scrapple From The Apple, Yardbird Suite.
