Summary of This Book
This collection brings together a dozen jazz classics, designed for solo instrumentalists who want to play over credible and inspiring accompaniments. Thanks to the "jazz combo" backing tracks, you can practice as if with a band: fitting your sound into the harmony, refining your articulation, stabilizing the tempo, and building stronger choruses. It is also an excellent foundation for learning to "tell a story": theme, variations, dynamics, breathing, and jazz phrasing.
The selection covers very complementary colors: from energetic swing to modal atmospheres, including more soul-jazz grooves. You will thus strengthen your harmonic landmarks, improve your sense of form, and develop your improvisation vocabulary, all while keeping a clear goal: to make each standard sound with style and precision.
