10 Easy Jazz Duets , written by John La Porta with Greg Nielsen, contains jazz duets in a variety of styles. This unique book is compatible for performance with all instruments and is published with a CD of hip rhythm section backgrounds. In addition, the duets can be performed with a live rhythm section using the chord symbols provided in the C and Bass Clef editions. Not only is the book great for individual jazz practice for improvisation, articulation and phrasing, but it provides interaction with another musician or group with no limitation on the instrumentation. The duets are also very useful to the educator who may find it difficult to get a full band together.

Here we have a typical minor blues in all 12 keys. Few chord progressions offer the freedom and variety of expression found in the minor blues progression. Great players have all approached this chord progression in a variety of ways; from attacking each chord vertically in its pure form to playing horizontally “across” the progression, usually with a blues or minor pentatonic scale, to taking all or part of the changes totally harmonically “out”. A perfect practice set for all musicians! Rob Schneiderman, piano; Akira Tana, drums; Rufus Reid, bass.

Vous apprendrez dans ce livre, simultanément, les parties harmoniques, mélodiques, rythmiques et lignes de basse de chaque morceau!

Les sujets abordés comprennent l'assimilation interactive de l'harmonie et de la mélodie, le développement de lignes de basse, les enrichissements d'accords, les harmonies en quartes et les arrangements pour guitare solo. Tous ces concepts sont abondamment illustrés d'exemples à pratiquer, y compris des arrangements de quelques mélodies traditionnelles.
