Summary of This Method
Designed to make daily jazz practice more effective, this method combines easy-to-read lead sheets with professional audio tracks accessible online. The interactive interface allows you to adjust the tempo without losing the groove, create loops to isolate a section (turnaround, bridge, vamp), and work on ensemble playing by muting or keeping certain parts according to your goals (rhythm section only, bass only, etc.). A tracking marker on the lead sheet helps you stay within the form, ideal for reinforcing reading, ear training, and structure before improvising. The melody, performed on Saxophone or Trumpet during the exposition and reprise of the theme ("head in / head out"), serves as a musical reference for articulation, phrasing, and placement. The full stereo tracks can also be downloaded for offline practice. The repertoire offers 10 essential titles to work on sound, pulse, and language: Alligator Bogaloo, Cissy Strut, Cold Duck Time, Comin' Home Baby, Mercy, Mercy, Mercy, Put It Where You Want It, Sidewinder, The Chicken, Tom Cat, Watermelon Man.
