Summary of This Book
This collection brings together 147 compositions by one of the most influential and innovative musicians on the modern jazz scene. The "Real Book" layout focuses on the essentials: direct and musical reading, designed to quickly move from discovery to interpretation, then to improvisation.
The edition is arranged for all concert pitch instruments (C), which facilitates working in concert key for many instrumentalists (piano, guitar, flute, violin, trombone, etc.). It is a particularly practical format for building a solid repertoire, preparing rehearsals, or having reliable tunes to take anywhere.
It features a broad overview of notable pieces, with essential titles such as "Are You Going With Me?", "Bright Size Life", "First Circle", "Last Train Home", "Minuano (Six-Eight)", and "Phase Dance". An excellent resource for working on melody, harmony, and phrasing typical of contemporary jazz, while maintaining the flexibility needed to adapt the interpretation to your ensemble.
