Summary of This Method
Jazz has never forgotten its roots, and this method demonstrates it by exploring Blues/Jazz, an essential language both for the jazz guitarist and the bluesman wishing to enrich their harmonic and melodic vocabulary. Through 25 accompaniments and 25 associated solos, you make concrete progress on the elements that build the style: rhythmic placement, phrasing, articulation, typical chord progressions, "jazzified" harmonic colors, and melodic reflexes adapted to blues progressions.
A preliminary chapter lays the foundations and describes the characteristics of Blues/Jazz, while relying on the method's studies to immediately illustrate the concepts addressed. The accompaniments help you solidify your role as a rhythm guitarist (groove, cadence, dynamics, coherence of voicings), while the corresponding solos guide you toward more idiomatic improvisation, inspired by great standards and guitarists who have shaped this repertoire over the decades.
The provided recordings complement the sheet music particularly effectively: the videos (mp4) visually show all guitar parts as they should be played, directly on their playback, to facilitate setup and rhythmic precision. The audios (mp3) offer the corresponding playbacks to play the missing part, loop for repetition, or develop your own ideas in the style. Each piece is available at the tempo indicated on the sheet music, as well as at a slower tempo, ideal for gradually building fluidity and tone.
