Georges Dandelot (1895-1975), who was a pupil of Widor, Roussel and Dukas, achieved posterity only through his educational manuals, which seem to enjoy permanent success. Some may regret the fact that his compositions have fallen into oblivion, but nobody can deny his tremendous talent for musical instruction. When it was published in 1935, the five-volume Etude Du Rythme filled a glaring gap: for the first time, a progressive method - graduated with minute care - set out to inculcate pupils with this 'vital element of all music. Dedicated to the simplest rhythms that are 'the basis of all to follow , the first volume now comes with a valuable addition: an audio version, attached to the score in the form of a download card, enabling budding musicians to monitor for themselves whether they have correctly reproduced the rhythms of the exercises. Of course, this recording can also be used to carry out rhythm dictations - modern-day technology at the service of a timeless method. / Percussions

With this book/audio set you will learn essential jazz rhythms first-hand from world-class professionals ! Reading Key Jazz Rhythms is a collection of 24 easy to medium level jazz etudes, and 24 simplified guide tone versions of the etudes. They are ideal for learning the basic language of jazz, swing phrasing, and articulation. A perfect tool for preparing for the jazz ensemble or for any other ensemble/orchestra which performs jazz related music (pops orchestras, musical, studio, movie scores, concert and marching bands, etc.). Each etude is based on a specific rhythm or a combination of rhythmic figures. Some etudes sound like very lyrical improvised jazz solos, while others are more like a melody to a standard. On the downloadable audio tracks the soloist demonstrates the 24 melodious etudes together with a professional rhythm section. You can also improvise along with the play-along tracks using the chord symbols. The guide tones are the essential or defining notes for each given chord type. So if improvising is new to you and you find yourself getting lost, you can always return to a guide tone and play rhythmically around it. Any etude and its corresponding simplified guide tone version can be played together as a duet (with or without the audio accompaniment) with your teacher or a friend.
