Summary of This Book
Part of the Jazz Play Along series, this collection is designed to support musicians who want to work on jazz in a practical way, with an approach focused on playing and listening. Thanks to a broad instrumentation (flute, violin, guitar, clarinet, trumpet, saxophone, trombone, and chord charts), it is suitable for both soloists and instrumentalists who enjoy playing in small groups, workshops, or personal practice.
Throughout the pages, you will find content designed to consolidate the essential foundations at the intermediate level: rhythmic setup, articulation, dynamics, intonation, and sound balance, while keeping the main goal of jazz in sight: making the phrase breathe and building a coherent musical discourse. The inclusion of chords facilitates harmonic understanding and supports accompaniment (comping) work or analysis, a real plus for gaining autonomy and developing better reflexes in performance situations.
The collection with online resources encourages a more interactive practice: you can structure your sessions, rehearse regularly, and progress in accuracy, ear training, and confidence. Whether you are preparing a jam session, an audition, or simply looking for a versatile jazz score to enrich your repertoire, this 2016 volume provides a solid, clear, and stimulating support.
