Summary of This Collection
Designed for pianists who wish to explore a jazz repertoire in piano solo, this collection offers a "songbook" approach focused on the joy of playing and the quality of voicings. Lee Evans' arrangements emphasize the balance between right and left hands, accompaniment, chord colors, and voice leading, to achieve a rich sound without losing the clarity of the musical text.
Thanks to the online supports, you can consolidate your interpretation by working on tempo, articulation, rhythmic placement, and dynamics. It is an excellent resource to develop phrasing reflexes, refine your sense of swing, and better understand the harmonic logic specific to the style. Continuing the spirit of the Piano Solo Songbook series, this work is aimed both at pianists seeking pieces to perform and those wishing to structure their practice around a coherent collection, ideal for progressing and varying moods.
