Jazz
Conception is a new and exciting way for players at all levels
to learn the language of jazz! Each book includes a play-along CD
featuring 21 solo etudes based on chord changes to standards and blues.
The same 21 etudes transposed and
adapted for the main jazz instruments.
 | See and hear how a well
known soloist phrases and articulates and play along with or without
the soloist on the CD.
 | Play along with one of
todays finest, swinging New York rhythm sections: Mike LeDonne on
piano, Dennis Irwin on bass, and Kenny Washington on drums.
 | Start out fairly easy, then
get progressively more difficult. |
| |
 | Use the etudes as a bridge
to solos of the masters that are usually more complicated and
involved.
 | Learn melodies and lines
that will give you a solid jazz vocabulary and musicality.
 | Use the book/CD sets for
private lessons, for self-study, or in any combination up to a full
jazz ensemble, including flute and clarinet.
 | If you are more advanced
you may want to use the book to develop your sight reading
abilities, for transcribing the etudes off the CD (then check
against the book) or for just having fun playing along with a great
jazz rhythm section. |
 | Use as an improvisation
study, learning how to construct a swinging, logical solo - works
especially well in combination with the Study Guide.
 | The Jazz Conception Series
is also perfectly suited for the class room. It can be used to
develop younger students jazz style in a big band or small group. In
an improvisation class the teacher can use the etudes as studies in
improvisation. The Study Guide provides an analysis of each etude,
along with practice assignments for each etude. |
